Description

  • pH-sensitive, fluorescent label containing one reactive NHS-ester group and pKa in the physiological pH range (pKa = 7.1 - free dye, pKa ~ 6.3 when labeled to antibody).

 

Applications

  • Cell-based imaging applications (ratiometric or FLIM) of e.g. receptor translocations, plasma membrane associated receptor activation or GPCR-ligand interactions via endocytosis.
  • Covalent labeling of proteins, amino-modified DNA and amino-modified oligonucleotides and amino-modified lipids.

 

Advantages

  • Perfectly suited for excitation with the 594, 635 and 650-nm diode lasers.
  • Sensitive; high extinction coefficients and high quantum yields up to 16% after covalent attachment to biomolecules.
  • pH-label that exhibits intensity as well as lifetime-based changes with pH.
  • Good aqueous solubility; this label does not alter the solubility of the conjugate.
  • Ideal for non-radioactive labeling of proteins, amino-modified DNA probes and amino-modified oligonucleotides.
