Product description: AATOM(TM) 647N is a rhodamine-derived fluorescent dye specifically optimized for applications in the red spectral region. It exhibits spectral properties comparable to Cy5, with improved aqueous solubility conferred by a PEG3 spacer. The dye is characterized by a high molar absorptivity, robust fluorescence quantum yield, and superior thermal and photostability, making it a reliable choice for demanding experimental conditions. AATOM(TM) 647N is moderately hydrophilic and has an excitation maximum within the 625-660 nm range, which is well-suited for use with the 647 nm line of Krypton-Ion lasers and the 650 nm line of diode lasers. The dye retains consistent fluorescence across a wide pH spectrum (pH 2-11), ensuring its applicability in diverse biochemical and biophysical assays. Upon conjugation, AATOM(TM) 647N becomes cationic with a net positive charge of +1. Notably, this dye exhibits enhanced resistance to atmospheric ozone degradation compared to cyanine dyes, increasing its stability and reliability in microarray and other long-term applications. AATOM(TM) 647N is particularly suitable for high-precision techniques, including single-molecule detection, super-resolution microscopy (e.g., SIM, STED), flow cytometry (FACS), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and various other advanced biological and analytical methodologies. The PEG3-azide derivative of AATOM(TM) 647N 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.
