AqT® Digoxigenin Antibody Labeling kit is a proprietary digoxigenin labeling kit developed at CellMosaic® for obtaining high quality and high loading of digoxigenin labeled antibody with minimal or no aggregation.
For a detailed description of the AqT® technologies, please see our technology section.
The CM86440 kit is designed to label any antibody with AqT® digoxigenin via surface amines on the antibody. The user supplies the antibody. The kit includes AqT® digoxigenin acid, which is activated within 15 minutes and then coupled directly to the antibody in one step within 1 hour. The labeled product is subsequently purified to remove any unreacted AqT® digoxigenin acid
The kit is available in multiple configurations for labeling antibodies ranging from 0.1 to 3 mg. Each configuration supports labeling of either one (×1) or three (×3) antibody samples. Please refer individual configuration to use the user manual.

Requirement for Antibody
- MW: ≥ 100 KDa (if MW is lower, please use an alternative kit)
- Preferably >90% pure by gel electrophoresis
- Total amount: 0.1-3 mg of protein content as measured by UV.
Key Features
- Advanced AqT® linker technology: Utilizes CellMosaic’s proprietary, super-hydrophilic, water-soluble, charge-neutral AqT® linker to minimize fluorophore stacking and antibody aggregation.
- High digoxigenin loading: Typical degree of labeling (DOL) of 6–8 digoxigenin per IgG antibody for increased sensitivity..
- All-inclusive kit with validated analytical method: Provides sterilized buffers and tubes, and filters for digoxigenin labeling. Also includes method needed for concentration measurement and loading determination.
- Fast, user-friendly workflow plus optional support: One-step labeling and purification in ~2 hours (≤1 hour hands-on), with optional post-conjugation services at CellMosaic® for analytical characterization and DOL determination.
Labeling Chemistry

Protocol
Schematic workflow diagram for preparing AqT® digoxigenin labeled antibody within 2 hours, starting with 3 mg of antibody. (Reagent volume will vary if the amount of IgG is less than 3 mg).

Example Data
The figures below show an example of AqT digoxigenin labeling of a hIgG monoclonal antibody. Using AqT® engineering, a high average degree of labeling (DOL: 6.9) was achieved despite the extreme hydrophobicity of the digoxigenin core. The extent of labeling was assessed by HIC HPLC (Figure 1). Apparent molecular weight and aggregation were evaluated by size-exclusion chromatography (SEC)-HPLC (Figure 2).
AqT Digoxigenin labeling with an average DOL of 6.9 shows slight shift in apparent MW, and the conjugate has a hydrodynamic volume similar to, or slightly larger than, the native antibody. Around 10% aggregation is observed after labeling with high amount of digoxigenin.
