Cyanine5 nhs ester cy5

Manufactured by Lumiprobe
Sourced in United States

Cyanine5 NHS ester (Cy5) is a fluorescent labeling reagent that can be used to attach a cyanine 5 dye to biomolecules, such as proteins, peptides, and oligonucleotides, through an NHS ester reaction. Cy5 is a near-infrared fluorescent dye with excitation and emission maxima of approximately 650 nm and 670 nm, respectively.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
