Invitrogen™ Alexa Fluor™ 568 Phalloidin

Description

• Alexa Fluor 568 dye is photostable and brighter than other red-orange fluorescent dyes like Lissamine rhodamine B and Texas Red-X dye
• Get Superior Results in Actin Staining Studies Phalloidin is a bicyclic peptide belonging to a family of toxins isolated from the deadly Amanita phalloides “death cap” mushroom and is commonly used in imaging applications to selectively label F-actin
• Fluorescently-labeled phalloidin has virtually identical binding properties with actin from different species including plants and animals
• Phalloidin binds F-actin with high selectivity while Alexa Fluor 568 provides red-orange fluorescence of unparalleled brightness and photostability
• Demonstrating very little nonspecific staining, Alexa Fluor 568 phalloidin allows high-contrast discrimination of actin staining
• Selectively stains F-actin Outstanding fluorescence performance Excitation/Emission: 578/600nm Superior to antibody staining Optimal for fixed and permeabilized samples Cell Analysis, Cell Structure, Cytoskeleton
• Used to visualize and quantitate F-actin in tissue sections, cell cultures, or cell-free preparations Order Info Shipping Condition: Room Temperature
