Biochem/physiol Actions

Amine reactive green fluorescent dye that can be used to label molecules like antibodies, proteins, peptides, and nucleic acids.



BODIPY FL-NHS ester is a versatile amine sensitive fluorescent labeling reagent that can be used to tag antibodies, proteins, peptides, and nucleic acids. BODIPY (boron-dipyrromethene) dyes are known for their excellent photophysical properties, including high fluorescence quantum yield, good photostability, and wide spectral tunability. BODIPY FL has a distinctive absorption peak (excitation) at 503-505 nm and an emission peak at 512-514 nm, resulting in bright green fluorescence. BODIPY FL is used in a wide range of applications, including immunofluorescence, live cell imaging, FRET experiments, and other fluorescence-based studies.
