Prodcut description
XFD635, manufactured by AAT Bioquest, is a bright far red-fluorescent dye structurally identical to Alexa Fluor™ 635 (ThermoFisher). It is characterized by its intense brightness, high fluorescence quantum yield and photostability. The dye demonstrates excellent solubility in aqueous solutions and retains pH-independent fluorescence over a broad range (pH 4–11), ensuring consistent performance across diverse experimental conditions. Optimally excited by the 633 nm emission line of He-Ne lasers or the 635 nm diode laser, XFD635 is particularly well-suited for flow cytometry. Its robust and uniform labeling properties yield high signal intensity and reproducibility, making it an ideal choice for advanced fluorescence imaging, flow cytometry, and various fluorescence-based analytical techniques.
The maleimide derivative of XFD635 is widely used for labeling biomolecules with free thiol (SH) groups, including antibodies, proteins, thiol-modified oligonucleotides, and low molecular weight ligands. Maleimides react readily with sulfhydryl groups, forming stable thio-ether bonds between the dye and the biomolecule, facilitating robust and reliable labeling for diverse experimental applications.
