Cy5.5 CAS#210892-23-2

Cy5.5 is a fluorescent dye used in biological research, particularly for imaging and detection purposes. It belongs to the cyanine dye family and is characterized by its strong fluorescence in the far-red to near-infrared spectrum. This makes it suitable for applications where minimal background interference is desired, such as in vivo imaging and fluorescence microscopy. Cy5.5 is known for its photostability and high extinction coefficient, which allows for sensitive detection even at low concentrations. It is commonly used for labeling antibodies, proteins, and other biomolecules to track their distribution and interactions within biological systems.

Cy5.5 Usage And Synthesis
Description Cy5.5 is a type of cyano dye, the definition of cyano is synthetic dye, in which nitrogen and part of the conjugated chain usually form part of a heterocyclic ring system, such as imidazole, pyridine, pyrole, quinoline and thiazole. cyano group Dyes are used in industrial biotechnology (labeling, analysis, biomedical imaging).
Uses Cy5.5 (Sulfo-Cyanine5.5) is a near-infrared fluorescent dye (Ex=673 nm, Em=707 nm) used to label biomolecules such as peptides, proteins and oligonucleotides.
