Invitrogen™ Alexa Fluor™ 647 Phalloidin

Description

• Alexa Fluor 647 phalloidin is a high-affinity F-actin probe conjugated to our bright, photostable, far-red fluorescent Alexa Fluor 647 dye
• • Selectively stains F-actin • Outstanding fluorescence performance • Excitation/Emission: 650/668 nm • Superior to antibody staining • Optimal for fixed and permeabilized samples 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 647 provides far-red fluorescence of unparalleled brightness and photostability
• Demonstrating very little nonspecific staining, Alexa Fluor 647 phalloidin allows high-contrast discrimination of actin staining
• Use in Multiple Applications Alexa Fluor 647 phalloidin can be used to visualize and quantitate F-actin in tissue sections, cell cultures, or cell-free preparations
• Alexa Fluor 647 phalloidin staining is fully compatible with other fluorescent stains used in cellular analyses including fluorescent proteins, Qdot nanocrystals, and other Alexa Fluor conjugates including secondary antibodies
