ReadiUse™ Preactivated APC-Cy7 Maleimide

APC-Cy7 is a popular tandem color used in flow cytometry. Its primary absorption peak is at 651 nm with emission peak at ~780 nm. AAT Bioquest offers this preactivated APC-Cy7 to facilitate the APC-Cy7 tandem conjugations to reduced antibodies and other biomolecules that contain a thiol group. Our preactivated APC-Cy7 maleimide is prepared from the commonly used crosslinker SMCC, and ready to conjugate. Allophycocyanin (APC) is a phycobiliprotein isolated from Spirulina sp., a blue-green alga. Like other phycobiliproteins, APC is fluorescent, with an extremely high absorptivity and a high quantum efficiency. It is a protein which can be easily linked to antibodies and other proteins by conventional protein cross-linking techniques without altering its spectral characteristics.

Flow cytometry analysis of whole blood stained with APC-Cy7 anti-human CD8 *HIT8a* conjugate. The fluorescence signal was monitored using an Aurora spectral flow cytometer in the APC-Cy7 specific R7-A channel.
