Iron-dextran antibody conjugates: General method for simultaneous staining of two components in high-resolution immunoelectron microscopy.
We report the preparation and properties of an electron-dense antibody conjugate, made by the covalent bonding of an iron-dextran (Imposil) particle to an antibody molecule. Transmission electron microscopic experiments with the Imposil-antibody conjugates demonstrate their suitability as specific immunostains at high resolution, particularly for simultaneous double staining experiments in conjunction with ferritin-antibody conjugates.
