ATTO 620 is a bright-red fluorescent dye, characterized by its strong absorption, exceptional photo and thermal stability, and temperature-dependent fluorescence. It demonstrates moderate hydrophilicity and optimal excitation within the 600-630 nm wavelength range. The dye maintains stable fluorescence over a wide pH range (2-11), allowing for its use in diverse experimental conditions. Upon conjugation to a substrate, ATTO 620 becomes cationic, carrying a net positive charge of +1. These properties make ATTO 620 particularly suitable for high-precision applications, including single-molecule detection and super-resolution microscopy techniques such as PALM, dSTORM, and STED. Additionally, it is compatible with flow cytometry (FACS), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and various other biological assays.

The azide derivative of ATTO 620 is widely used for labeling terminal alkynes on peptides, antibodies, and other biomolecules via click chemistry. It participates in copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) with alkyne-containing molecules and strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) with DBCO- or BCN-containing molecules.
