HiLyte™ Fluor 555 C2 maleimide – 1 mg

Overview

The HiLyte™ Fluor 555 C2 maleimide is a premium thiol-reactive fluorescent labeling dye designed for generating protein conjugates that are slightly red-shifted compared to Cy3 dyes. This specific shift results in an optimal match for filters tailored for Cy3, giving you flexibility during your experiments. Our HiLyte™ Fluor 555 is not only more photostable than Cy3, but it also offers researchers extended time for image capture, making it an ideal choice for various applications in labeling and detection. With its superior performance in fluorescence polarization-based assays, you’ll find that this product stands out in your research endeavors.
