Properties
Description
Atto 488-dextran is synthesized using the succinimidyl-derivative of Atto 488 from well-characterized dextran fractions and it showcases an absorbance peak of 502 nm when immersed in a borate buffer of pH 9.0, alongside an emission wavelength of 524 nm. Atto 488-dextran is a high-quality product with a degree of substitution of 0.001-0.008.
Degree of Substitution
0.1-0.8%
Form
White to off-white powder
Solubility
Atto 488-dextran dissolves readily in water.
Identity
Confirmed by NMR/HPLC/MS.
Applications
Atto 488-dextran with DS of 0.001-0.008 can be used for the study of permeability, microcirculation, single-molecule detection, flow cytometry, and fluorescence in-situ hybridization due to its high absorption, quantum yield, and photo-stability properties.
