Research Abstract

As the methods to evaluate chromophore-antibody conjugation state, gel-filtration chromatography, fluorescence-correlation spectroscopy, hyper-sensitive spectral imaging and high-magnification SEM were established or applied. Through those methods, two conjugation methods were established and applied to simultaneous imaging of T -bet, GATA-3, ROR-gt, FoxP3. IL-10 and IFN-a were also successfully imaged.
