Conjugation Services

MSD provides convenient custom Conjugation Services that leverage our expertise and knowledge in reagent manufacturing for conjugating biomolecules with either biotin or SULFO-TAG for use on our platform. Biotin-conjugated material may be used as either capture or detection reagent in MSD assays, whereas SULFO-TAG-conjugated molecules serve as detectors. Our standard Conjugation Service is available for antibodies, proteins, peptides, and oligonucleotides.

MSD offers Gold Conjugation Service for antibodies that includes the benefits of our standard Conjugation Service plus additional characterization and quality assessment of the conjugated product. MSD GOLD Conjugation Service is critical for customers working in validated environments or conducting longitudinal studies that require high performance and reproducibility.
