Sulforhodamine 101 is a fluorescence reference standard for measuring fluorescence quantum yield. It is also the key precursor used for preparing rhodamine 101 sulfonyl chloride (also called Texas Red®, a trademark of Molecular Probes). This sulforhodamine 101 sodium salt is more water-soluble than the neutral sulforhodamine 101.

Important

Store at -20 °C, desiccated and protected from light. Expiration date is one year from the date of receipt.

PREPARATION OF STOCK SOLUTION

Unless otherwise noted, all unused stock solutions should be divided into single-use aliquots and stored at -20 °C after preparation. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

1. Sulforhodamine 101 stock solution (1mM):
Add 1.591 µL DMSO or water to 1 mg Sulforhodamine 101 to make 1 mM stock solution. Note: Add appropriate amount of DMSO or water to make appropriate concentration of stock solution.

PREPARATION OF WORKING SOLUTION

1. Sulforhodamine 101 working solution:
Working solution can be diluted in phosphate or Tris buffer, pH 7-8. Note: Make appropriate concentration of working solution as per needed.
