Description

Flamma® Fluors 675 Isothiocyanate is a cutting-edge near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent dye designed for superior performance in bioimaging applications. This reactive dye, derived from benzindocyanine structure, offers exceptional stability and versatility, making it an ideal choice for researchers seeking high-quality fluorescence signals in biological studies.

Key Features:
  • Stable Reactivity: Moderately reactive isothiocyanate group for controlled labeling
  • Solvent Compatibility: Stable in water and most organic solvents
  • Spectral Properties: Ex/Em maxima at 675/691 nm, comparable to popular dyes like Alexa 680 and Cy5.5
  • NIR Emission: Ideal for deep tissue imaging with minimal background interference
  • Versatile Applications: Suitable for labeling antibodies, peptides, proteins, ligands, and amplification substrates
  • Optimized for Cellular Studies: Excellent for cellular labeling and detection
Flamma® Fluors 675 Isothiocyanate excels in various bioimaging applications, including cellular labeling (optimized for high-resolution cellular imaging and detection), protein conjugation (efficiently tags antibodies and other proteins), peptide labeling (ideal for fluorescent tagging of peptides), ligand binding studies (excellent for fluorescence-based binding assays and amplification substrate labeling (enhances sensitivity in amplification-based detection methods). 

For optimal conjugation results with Flamma® Fluors 675 Isothiocyanate, please adhere to the following:
  • pH Requirement: Use a buffer with pH above 9 for efficient conjugation
  • Comparison to NHS Esters: While NHS ester labeling typically occurs at pH 8.3, isothiocyanates require a higher pH for optimal reactivity
  • Buffer Selection: Carbonate or borate buffers are recommended for maintaining the required alkaline pH
Flamma® Fluors 675 Isothiocyanate is particularly well-suited for live Cell Imaging, which is excellent for labeling cell surface proteins or internalized biomolecules, immunofluorescence, which is good for high-quality labeling of antibodies for sensitive detection in tissue sections, protein Trafficking Studies, which track labeled proteins through cellular compartments with minimal background, and multiplexing experiments, which combine with other fluorophores for multi-color imaging studies. 

Flamma® Fluors 675 Isothiocyanate represents a significant advancement in NIR fluorescent dyes for bioimaging. Its unique combination of controlled reactivity, stability, and superior spectral properties makes it an excellent choice for researchers demanding high-quality, reliable results in their fluorescence-based experiments. Whether you're conducting cellular labeling, protein conjugation, or exploring complex biological systems, this dye offers the performance and versatility needed to push the boundaries of your research in the near-infrared spectrum. Its optimized properties for cellular studies make it an invaluable tool for researchers working at the forefront of biological imaging and detection.

Background

Flamma® Fluors

BioActs offers a broad range of Flamma® Fluors dyes equipped with variety of reactive and functional groups, which can cover the full spectral range from UV to NIR with their excellent fluorescence performance. Characteristic features of these superior dyes are strong absorption, high fluorescence quantum yield and high photostability. Flamma® dyes maintain good fluorescence activity and stability after conjugation to biomolecules and allow the detection of low-abundance biological structures with great sensitivity. The dyes are compatible with optical conditions of most of fluorescent equipment and are ideal for any applications in biological studies.
  • Covering the full spectral range from UV to NIR
  • Equipped with a variety of reactive groups: NHS and Sulfo-NHS ester, Vinylsulfone, Maleimide, Click chemistry, isothiocyanate, hydrazide and hydrophobic substances.
  • High quantum yields and photostability
  • High purity and compatible with most of biomolecules
What are the advantages? 
  • Controlled Reactivity: The isothiocyanate group offers moderate reactivity, allowing for precise control during the labeling process.
  • Stable Conjugation: Forms reasonably stable thiourea linkages with primary amines, ensuring long-lasting fluorescent signals.
  • Broad Solvent Compatibility: Maintains stability in water and most organic solvents, providing flexibility in experimental design.
  • Spectral Similarity: Comparable spectral properties to widely used dyes like Alexa 680, Cy5.5, IRDye 680LT, and DyLight 680, enabling easy integration into existing imaging protocols.
  • Deep Tissue Imaging: NIR emission allows for imaging of deeper tissues with reduced autofluorescence and improved signal-to-noise ratio.

Flamma® Fluors Isothiocyanate

 


BioActs offers a series of Flamma® Fluors isothiocyanates, which are moderately reactive but quite stable in water and most organic solvents. Isothiocyanates form reasonably stable thiourea linkage upon reaction with amines. Whereas labeling of protein with NHS esters can typically be done at pH 8.3, conjugation for isothiocyanates usually require pH above 9. This basic isothiocyanate labeling condition may be a factor for working with basic-environment tolerable biomolecules that DNA and most polysaccharides can be modified in a relatively basic pH.
