LiFluor™ 488 Green is a bright, green fluorescent dye with excitation ideally suited for the 488 nm laser line. LiFluor™ 488 dye is bright, water soluable and pH-insensitive from pH 4 to pH 10. The dye can be used as a replacement for Alexa Fluor 488, DyLight 488, Cy2, FITC, FAM.
The NHS ester (or succinimidyl ester) is the most popular amine reactive group for labeling with the primary amines (R-NH2) of proteins, amine-modified oligonucleotides, and other amine-containing molecules. The resulting LiFluor™ conjugate will exhibit brighter fluorescence and greater photostability than the conjugates of other spectrally similar fluorophores.
Key Features
• LiFluor™ fluorescent dye has superior brightness and good photostability.
• The dye is insensitive to pH change and has good water solubility.
• Multiplexing: across spectrum from UV to near-IR.
