-
Fluorescein Dye: Provides strong fluorescence for imaging and detection.
-
Carboxylic Acid: Couples efficiently with amines to form amide bonds.
-
PEG2 and PEG4 Spacers: Enhance solubility and minimize steric hindrance.
-
High Purity: Delivers reliable results in fluorescence-based bioconjugation workflows.
Applications
-
Imaging and Detection: Builds fluorescent probes for biological and diagnostic studies.
-
Bioconjugation: Links biomolecules through azide click chemistry and amide coupling.
-
Probe Development: Generates dual-functional probes with fluorescence and click handles.
-
Material Science: Incorporates fluorescent and reactive groups into polymers or nanoparticles.
Storage and Handling
-
Storage: Keep at –20 °C in a sealed, light- and moisture-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents such as DMF or DMSO; avoid prolonged exposure to light.
