Invitrogen™ Alexa Fluor™ 594 NHS Ester (Succinimidyl Ester), 5 mg

Invitrogen™ Alexa Fluor™ 594 NHS Ester (Succinimidyl Ester), 5 mg

Alexa Fluor™ 594 is a bright red dye. Used for stable signal generation in imaging and flow cytometry, Alexa Fluor™ 594 dye is water soluble and pH-insensitive from pH 4 to pH 10. In addition to reactive dye formulations, we offer Alexa Fluor™ 594 dye conjugated to a variety of antibodies, peptides, proteins, tracers, and amplification substrates optimized for cellular labeling and detection 

The NHS ester (or succinimidyl ester) of Alexa Fluor™ 594 is the most popular tool for conjugating this dye to a protein or antibody. NHS esters can be used to label to the primary amines (R-NH2) of proteins, amine-modified oligonucleotides, and other amine-containing molecules. The resulting Alexa Fluor™ conjugate will exhibit brighter fluorescence and greater photostability than the conjugates of other spectrally similar fluorophores.
