APDye 488 (Alexa Fluor 488 equivalent or AF488 equivalent) is a stable dye that functions effectively over a broad pH range (from 4 to 10). It presents its fluorescence peak in the green region (at 519 nm), making it ideal for various applications.
APDye 488’s conjugation with biomolecules can be utilized in flow cytometry, facilitating multicolor staining practices. Owing to its high photostability, APDye 488 is also employed in cell microscopy, enhancing the visualization of cellular components and processes.
APDye 488 amine, being water-soluble, can be conjugated to electrophiles and can actively engage in enzymatic transamination reactions.
