Properties
Description
FITC-inulin is a fluorescein-labeled inulin fraction provided as a water-soluble yellow powder, where the fluorescein part is affixed by a steadfast thiocarbamoyl bond. It exhibits a maximum excitation of 490-495 nm and an emission peak of 520 ± 5 nm. FITC-inulin is a high-quality product with a molecular weight of 3,000-6,000 and a degree of substitution of 0.001-0.015.
