MB™ 488 NHS Ester is a highly hydrophilic, green-emitting dye, related to Alexa Fluor® 488 but with better water solubility, brightness, and reduced self-quenching. It offers strong absorption, high fluorescence quantum yield, and excellent photostability, making it ideal for single-molecule detection, PALM, dSTORM, STED microscopy, and flow cytometry.
Key Features:
- Bright Green Fluorescence: Emits vivid green light with high quantum yield.
- Enhanced Solubility: Improved water solubility minimizes self-quenching.
- High Photostability: Resists photobleaching, ideal for long imaging sessions.
- NHS Ester Reactivity: Quickly reacts with primary amines to form stable covalent bonds.
Applications:
- Microscopy: Perfect for PALM, dSTORM, STED, and other high-resolution techniques.
- Flow Cytometry: Labels cells for precise analysis and sorting.
- FISH: Delivers bright signals for detecting nucleic acids.
- Protein Labeling: Efficiently tags proteins, antibodies, and amine-modified molecules.
MB™ 488 NHS Ester stands out for its brightness, solubility, and stability, offering reliable labeling for advanced biological research.
