PE-Texas Red Tandem
PE-Texas Red is a popular color used in flow cytometry. Its primary absorption peak is at 565 nm with emission peak at 600 nm. AAT Bioquest also offers a unique preactivated PE-Texas Red to facilitate the PE-Texas Red tandem conjugations to antibodies and other proteins such as streptavidin and other secondary reagents. Our preactivated PE-Texas Red tandem is ready to conjugate, giving much higher yield than the conventionally tedious SMCC-based conjugation chemistry. In addition, our preactivated PE-Texas Red tandem is conjugated to a protein via its amino group that is abundant in proteins while SMCC chemistry targets the thiol group that has to be regenerated by the reduction of antibodies.
![Phycoerythrin (PE) is a red protein-pigment complex from the light harvesting phycobiliprotein family, present in red algae and cryptophytes, accessory to the main chlorophyll pigments responsible for photosynthesis. PE-Texas Red tandem is a conjugate of PE with Texas Red. It can be excited by blue laser with emission at 610 nm. It is extremely useful for flow cytometry-based immunoassays.](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.aatbio.com%2Fproducts%2Ffigures-and-data%2Fpe-texas-red-tandem%2Ffigure-for-pe-texas-red-tandem_YWyZs.jpg&w=640&q=75)
