Invitrogen™ Alexa Fluor™ 610-X NHS Ester (Succinimidyl Ester)

Invitrogen™ Alexa Fluor™ 610-X NHS Ester (Succinimidyl Ester)

Alexa Fluor® 610-X is a bright and photostable Texas Red™ dye substitute. Used for stable signal generation in imaging and flow cytometry, Alexa Fluor® 610-X dye is water soluble and pH-insensitive from pH 4 to pH 10. In addition to reactive dye formulations, we offer Alexa Fluor® 610–R-Phycoerythrin tandem antibody conjugates for flow cytometry.The NHS ester (or succinimidyl ester) of Alexa Fluor® 610-X 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.
