Description

Features and Benefits

1. Yields much brighter antibody conjugates than Alexa Fluor®568. 2. Extremely photostable. 3. Highly water-soluble.

General description

CF568 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 CF568 are much brighter than those of Alexa Fluor® 568. In addition, the photostability of CF568 is superior to that of Alexa Fluor® 568, making CF568 a much better choice for demanding applications such as confocal microscopy and single molecule imaging.
