Thermo Scientific™ DyLight™ 800 NHS Ester, 5 x 50 µg

Thermo Scientific DyLight 800 Amine-Reactive Dye is an NHS ester-activated derivative of high-performance DyLight 800 used to fluorescently label antibodies and other proteins that are then used as molecular probes for cellular imaging and other fluorescence detection methods.

DyLight 800 is a near-IR fluor that is invisible to the naked eye but increases the staining options when using infrared imaging systems. DyLight 800 has spectral properties that are very similar to other near-IR dyes, including Alexa Fluor™ 790 and IRDye™ 800. The high water solubility of DyLight Fluors means that a high dye-to-protein ratio can be attained without causing precipitation of the conjugates. DyLight 800 Amine-Reactive Dye is also available as part of two antibody labeling kit sizes.

Features

• High performance— DyLight 800 replaces Alexa Fluor 800 and IRDye 800 for near-infrared staining
• Specific— NHS ester-activated dye labels proteins and other molecules at primary amines (-NH2)
• Optimized procedure— following the standard protocol results in antibodies with excellent dye:protein ratios and recovery rates for optimum activity and fluorescence labeling
