Hi Vanessa.

I've run mouse LGM cells with strepavidin-RED670, result: high background,
with Southern BioTech's Neutralite Avidin, the background was reduced to a
level which was acceptable in the assay I was using.
I posted a reply to a similar question earlier this year which should be in
the archive.
