Descripción

General description

CF^™660C and CF^™660R are two spectrally similar fluorescent dyes that emit fluorescence at about 685 nm in the borderline spectral region between far-red and near-IR. Although their absorption maxima are at around 660 nm, both dyes can be sufficiently excited by the 633 or 635 nm laser. When combined with other CF^™ dyes of shorter wavelengths, CF^™660C or CF^™660R can serve as a useful long wavelength dye in multi-color detection applications. The two dyes are spectrally similar to Alexa Fluor^™ 660 but are far superior to the latter in performance. CF^™660R is a rhodamine-based dye. Like rhodamine dyes in general, CF^™660R is exceptionally photostable, compared to both Alexa Fluor^™ 660 and CF^™660C. CF^™660R is also much brighter than Alexa Fluor^™ 660, though not as bright as CF^™660C. The superior photostability and excellent brightness of CF^™660R make the dye an ideal choice for confocal microscopy and other demanding applications.

Features and Benefits

1. Brighter than Alexa Fluor^™660. 2. The most photostable 660 nm dye ideal for confocal microscopy application. 3. Highly water-soluble.
