mFluor(TM) Violet 450 maleimide

AAT Bioquest's mFluor(TM) dyes are developed for multicolor flow cytometry-focused applications. These dyes have large Stokes Shifts, and can be well excited by the laser lines of flow cytometers (e.g., 405 nm, 488 nm and 633 nm). mFluor(TM) Violet 450 dyes have fluorescence excitation and emission maxima of ~405 nm and ~450 nm respectively. These spectral characteristics make them an excellent replacement for Pacific Blue(TM) labeling dye. mFluor(TM) Violet 450 maleimide is stable and shows good reactivity and selectivity with thiol group. mFluor(TM) Violet 450 maleimide provides a convenient tool to label monoclonal, polyclonal antibodies or other proteins (>10 kDa) for flow cytometric applications with the violet laser excitation.
