It is fine to promote your company's reagents. Just make sure they are relevant to CyTOF, and do so in moderation and style :-)

Cocktail Stability

I was wondering what kind of shelf life a cocktail made with DVS conjugates has. The surface staining protocol on their website says to make the cocktail "up to" 24 hours in advance. It seems like a cocktail should be stable for much longer than this.(weeks? months?) Has anyone tested the stability of a cocktail?

Re: Cocktail Stability

Hi,
We are using home-made conjugates. We have used mixes that were kept at 4C for over a month, without significant loss of activity. Hope this helps.
