Is it really necessary to wash cells between incubation with a biotinylated antibody and adding streptavidin that is linked to a fluorochrome? That is, doesn't it work as well if the two are added together, thereby saving a step? I suppose that I could test this myself, however I would consider limited attempts by me to be anecdotal. Others out there may have done actual studies of this and might even know of tricks to make it work -- assuming that it is not as simple as I described. That's what I'm hoping, anyway! Kevin G.
