General description

Atto 532 NHS ester is a fluorescent dye related to the well-known laser dye, Rhodamine 6G. The fluorescence activity is excited efficiently at the 515-545nm range. A suitable excitation source for Atto 532 is the 532 nm output of the frequency-doubled Nd: YAG laser.

Application

Atto 532 NHS ester is highly suitable for single-molecule detection applications and high-resolution microscopy such as PALM, dSTORM, and STED. In addition, the dye is used in flow cytometry (FACS) and fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) methods.

Features and Benefits

Characteristic features of the Atto 532 NHS ester are:
  • Strong Absorption.
  • High Fluorescence quantum yield.
  • High Photostability.
  • Excellent water solubility.

Fusion is thought to open a pore to release vesicular cargoes vital for many biological processes, including exocytosis, intracellular trafficking, fertilization, and viral entry. However, fusion pores have not been observed and thus proved in live cells. Its regulatory mechanisms and
