Cy5 Alkyne
Abs/Em Maxima: 649/671 nm
Extinction Coefficient: 250,000
Flow Cytometry Laser Line: 633 or 635 nm
Microscopy Laser Line: 633 or 635 nm
Spectrally Similar Dyes: Alexa Fluor? 647, CF? 647 Dye, DyLight?649
The far-red fluorescent Cy5 Alkyne can be reacted with terminal alkynes via a copper-catalyzed click reaction (CuAAC) forming a stable triazole and does not require elevated temperatures. This far-red fluorescent probe is water-soluble, and its fluorescence is pH-insensitive from pH 4 to pH 10. Its excitation peak is ideally suited for the 633 nm or 647 nm laser lines and its absorption and emission spectra are almost identical to those of Alexa Fluor? 647, CF? 647 Dye, or any other Cyanine5 based fluorescent dyes.
