    Abstract: Described herein are reagents and methods for improving signal in imaging mass cytometry. Aspects include mass tags with a large number of labeling atoms, chemical modifications to mass tags and additional reagents to reduce background and/or maintain target binding of mass tagged specific binding partners (SBPs), and schemes for associating a plurality of mass tags with a single SBP. As such, embodiments include any combination of one or more reagents and their use. The reagents, kits and methods herein may be used for mass cytometry, including imaging mass cytometry. In some aspects, reagents, kits or methods may be used for delivery of a large number of radioisotopes to a target analyte, for example for therapeutic use or radiometric detection. In certain aspects, only non-radioactive isotopes may be used for mass cytometry.
