Abstract
Fluorescein antibodies were labelled with 7-aminocoumarin (AMC) derivatives, the 3-acetic acid and the 3-propionic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide esters. The labelled antibodies were used in conjunction with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) and carboxyfluorescein-conjugated primary and secondary antibodies to develop novel immunofluorescent staining procedures. These methods combine the advantages of the fluorescence properties of AMC and the ready availability of FITC-labelled antisera to provide an amplified fluorescence signal as well as overcoming the photobleaching problems in FITC staining. The method is easy to perform and is expected to make an important contribution to the improvement of the quality of staining achieved with immunofluorescence. Details of the procedure used to stain human fibroblasts with antifibronectin antibodies are reported in order to illustrate the method.
