iFluor® 647 amine

iFluor® 647 amine is a far-red fluorescent, amine-functionalized dye designed for covalent labeling of carbonyl-containing biomolecules, including compounds with aldehyde and carboxyl groups.

Amine-Reactive Chemistry: Supports conjugation to aldehyde and activated carboxyl groups.
Spectral Properties: Excitation/emission maxima of 655/670 nm.
pH Stability: Exhibits pH-independent fluorescence from pH 3 to 11.
Dye Compatibility: Spectrally similar to Cy5® and Alexa Fluor® 647, with improved brightness and photostability compared to Cy5®.

<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® 647 dyes have fluorescence excitation and emission maxima of ~656 nm and ~670 nm respectively. iFluor® 647 family has spectral properties essentially identical to those of Cy5®. Compared to Cy5® probes, iFluor® 647 reagents have much stronger fluorescence and higher photostability. Their fluorescence is pH-independent from pH 3 to 11. These spectral characteristics make this new dye family an excellent alternative to Cy5® and Alexa Fluor® 647 (Cy5® and Alexa Fluor® are the trademarks of GE Health Care and Invitrogen). iFluor® 647 amine is stable and used for modifying carbonyl groups (e.g., aldehyde and carboxy groups).
