VFA
Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is a 40kD protein that catalyzes the oxidation of substrates by hydrogen peroxide, resulting in a colored or fluorescent product or release of light as a byproduct of the reaction. It is most commonly used for blotting, immunoassays and immunohistochemistry methods. Vicia faba Lectin (VFA) is conjugated to HRP at an appropriate ratio to provide optimal staining characteristics.
