iFluor® 680 amine

iFluor® 680 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 Conjugation Chemistry: Supports coupling to aldehyde and activated carboxyl groups.
Spectral Properties: Excitation/emission maxima of 684/701 nm.
Photostability: Provides bright, photostable fluorescence with minimal protein quenching.
Dye Compatibility: Spectrally similar to Cy5.5® and Alexa Fluor® 680.

<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® 680 dyes have fluorescence excitation and emission maxima of ~684 nm and ~701 nm respectively. These spectral characteristics make them an excellent alternative to Cy5.5® and Alexa Fluor® 680 labeling dyes (Cy5.5® and Alexa Fluor® are the trademarks of GE Health Care and Invitrogen). iFluor® 680 amine is stable and used for modifying carbonyl groups (e.g., aldehyde and carboxy groups).
