6-OG488 Azide

Correction Factor (260 nm): 0.31. Correction Factor (280 nm): 0.12. Extinction coefficient (cm -1 M -1): 76000. Excitation (nm): 498. Emission (nm): 526. 6-OG488 azide has the same chemical structure to that of Oregon Green(TM) 488 azide. It is a convenient tool to introduce the fluorophore of Oregon Green to a biological molecule that contains an alkyne group. It is reactive with terminal alkynes via a copper-catalyzed click reaction. In particular, 6-OG488 azide can be used as a bio-orthogonal or biologically unique hapten for the biological applications requiring signal amplification. Oregon Green is a bright and photostable alternative to fluorescein for use in flow cytometry, fluorescence microscopy and high content analysis of cells.
