Yellow fluorescent dye; supplied as an NHS ester for coupling to primary amine groups. NHS ester can be converted to relevant substrate for use in self-labeling tag systems, e.g. HaloTag® and SNAP-tag®. Suitable for confocal fluorescent imaging and super resolution microscopy (SRM) techniques, such as dSTORM (live and fixed cells). Can be multiplexed for two color imaging with Janelia Fluor® 635 SE . Cell permeable. Excitation maximum = 525 nm; emission maximum = 549 nm; quantum yield = 0.91; Extinction coefficient = 122,000 M-1cm-1; Correction factor A280 = 0.185. We also offer Janelia Fluor® conjugated antibodies and custom conjugation services with our sister company Novus Biologicals. HaloTag is a trademark of Promega Corporation, and SNAP-tag is a trademark of New England BioLabs, Inc.
