A method for evaluating a biological material for unassociated virus-like particles virus size having a particular epitope uses a fluorescent antibody stain specific for binding with the epitope and a fluid sample with the virus-size particles and fluorescent antibody stain is subjected to flow cytometry with identification of fluorescent emission detection events indicative of passage through a flow cell of a flow cytometer of unassociated labeled particles of virus size including such a virus-like particle and fluorescent antibody stain.

The present invention may provide phosphor-integrated nanoparticles whose precipitation and/or aggregation, particularly aggregation can be inhibited upon carrying out immunostaining therewith and which can thus be used for staining even after long-term storage without requiring a complicated operation, the phosphor-integrated nanoparticles preferrably maintaining excellent performance, such as staining properties, even after long-term storage. The phosphor-integrated nanoparticles of the present invention have an average sphericity (f) of 0.80 to 0.95 and preferably have an average circumference ratio (R) of 0.50 to 0.95. More preferably, the matrix of the particles contains an organic compound, the phosphor-integrated nanoparticles have an average particle size of 300 nm or less, and a biological component-binding molecule is bound on the particle

Water solvated polymeric dyes having a deep ultraviolet excitation spectrum are provided. The subject polymeric dyes include a light harvesting multichromophore having conjugation-modifying repeat units incorporated into the polymer backbone to provide segments of π-conjugated co-monomers having limited π-conjugation between segments. Polymeric tandem dyes are also provided that further include a signaling chromophore covalently linked to the multichromophore in energy-receiving proximity therewith. Also provided are labelled specific binding members that include the subject water solvated polymeric dyes. Methods of evaluating a sample for the presence of a target analyte and methods of labelling a target molecule in which the subject polymeric dyes find use are also provided. Systems and kits for practicing the subject methods are also provided.

Provided herein are methods for generating conjugated immunoglobulins, the method comprising: decapping a cysteine at amino acid position 80 (“Cys80”) in a light chain variable region of an immunoglobulin, wherein the immunoglobulin comprises a heavy chain variable region and the light chain variable region; and conjugating a thiol-reactive compound to the Cys80, wherein the thiol-reactive compound comprises a thiol-reactive group. Antigen-binding molecules and methods for generating the same, immunoglobulins as well as nucleic acid molecules encoding the immunoglobulins and host cells comprising the nucleic acid molecules, conjugated immunoglobulins, and light chain variable regions for use in a conjugated immunoglobulin are also provided.
