iFluor® 510 succinimidyl ester is the most convenient form of activated iFluor® 510 derivatives that can be used for labeling proteins such as antibodies. It is a new fluorescent dye belonging to the iFluor® family of dyes. These dyes are known for their bright fluorescence, photostability, and compatibility with various imaging techniques and instruments. iFluor® 510 emits green fluorescence when excited with light in the blue to green range (around 488 to 514 nm). Its emission peak is typically around 520 to 530 nm. The number "510" in its name represents the approximate maximum excitation wavelength. Like other iFluor® dyes, iFluor® 510 is commonly used to develop a variety of conjugates in biological research and imaging applications. It can be conjugated to various biomolecules, such as antibodies, proteins, nucleic acids, and small molecules, for fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and other fluorescence-based assays. The iFluor® dyes are designed to offer enhanced performance compared to traditional dyes, with features like high quantum yields, excellent brightness, minimal background noise, and resistance to photobleaching. iFluor® 510, specifically, is suitable for applications where green fluorescence is desired.
