iFluor® 555 amine

iFluor® 555 Amine is an orange-fluorescent dye with a primary amine group for covalent modification of carbonyl-containing compounds in fluorescence-based research applications.

Amine Functional Group: Enables conjugation to aldehydes and activated carboxyl groups.
Spectral Properties: Excitation at 557 nm and emission at 570 nm.
pH Sensitivity: iFluor® 555 fluorescence remains stable across pH 3–11.
Spectral Compatibility: Offers spectral properties comparable to Cy3® and Alexa Fluor® 555.

<p>Fluorescent dye amines are the most popular tool for conjugating dyes to a target compound with a carbonyl group (e.g., aldehyde, carboxylic acid or activated carboxy group such as NHS ester).</p>

Overview

AAT Bioquest's iFluor® dyes are optimized for labeling proteins, particularly antibodies. These dyes are bright, photostable, and have minimal quenching on proteins. They can be well excited by the major laser lines of fluorescence instruments (e.g., 350, 405, 488, 555, and 633 nm). iFluor® 555 dyes have fluorescence excitation and emission maxima of ~557 nm and ~570 nm respectively. iFluor® 555 family has spectral properties essentially identical to those of Cy3® (Cy3® is the trademark of GE Healthcare). Compared to Cy3 probes, the iFluor® 555 family has much stronger fluorescence and higher photostability. Their fluorescence is pH-independent from pH 3 to 11. These spectral characteristics make this new dye family a superior alternative to Cy3®. iFluor® 555 family has become an excellent replacement for Cy3® and Alexa Fluor® 555 labeling dye (Cy3® and Alexa Fluor® are the trademarks of Invitrogen and GE Health Care). iFluor® 555 amine is stable and used for modifying carbonyl groups (e.g., aldehyde and carboxy groups).
