General description
CF™568 is a red fluorescent dye with an excitation spectrum optimally matching the 568 nm line of the Ar-Kr mixed-gas laser. Antibody conjugates of CF™568 are much brighter than those of Alexa Fluor™ 568. In addition, the photostability of CF™568 is superior to that of Alexa Fluor™ 568, making CF™568 a much better choice for demanding applications such as confocal microscopy and single molecule imaging.
Features and Benefits
1. Yields much brighter antibody conjugates than Alexa Fluor™568. 2. Extremely photostable. 3. Highly water-soluble.
Preparation Note
Protect from light and moisture
Reconstitution
Dissolve in DMSO
