Frequently Asked Questions
Introduction to Amersham CyDye™ Fluors  

  • Versatile fluorophores for use in a broad range of applications.
  • pH tolerance (pH 3-10) allows use at biologically relevant pH.
  • DMSO tolerance enables transfer from storage to assay without loss of performance.
  • Good aqueous solubility eliminates need for organic solvents in assay buffers.
  • Superior photostability (compared with other dyes, e.g., fluorescein) improves performance.
  • High purity and thorough QC testing ensures high levels of chromophore and reactive dye content.

Amersham CyDye™ Reactive Dye 5-Packs  

  • Convenient way to label antibodies, proteins, drugs, and oligonucleotides with CyDye™ fluorescent dyes.
  • For use in ELISA, immunoprecipitation, and blotting applications.
  • Dyes are packaged in premixed amounts and foil sealed to ensure consistent labelings.

Amersham CyDye™ Fluors for Protein Arrays  

Amersham CyDye™ Value Packs (mono-Reactive NHS Ester)  

  • Targeted and specific labeling of amine residues on antibodies, peptides, or oligonucleotides.
  • Bulk packs available for greatest economy.
  • Example protocols included with each dye pack.

Amersham CyDye™ Value Packs (bis-Reactive NHS Ester)  

  • Suitable for general labeling of amine residues.
  • Large range of bulk packs available for greatest economy.

Cy3 and Cy5 Maleimide mono-Reactive Dye 5-packs  

  • More selective method of antibody labeling that reduces the possibility of the label interfering with subsequent antibody-antigen reactions.
  • Provides an alternative for when CyDye™ NHS esters are unsuitable.
  • Dyes are packaged in premeasured amounts and foil-sealed to ensure consistent labelings.

Amersham CyDye™ Value Packs (mono-Reactive Maleimide)  

  • For the selective labeling of free sulfhydryl groups such as cysteine residues in peptides, proteins, and oligonucleotides.
  • Particularly suitable for the labeling of antibodies.
  • Large range of bulk packs available for greatest economy.
  • Example protocols included with each dye pack.

Amersham CyDye™ Value Packs (mono-Reactive Hydrazide)  

  • For the labeling of free carbonyl groups of glycoproteins and carbohydrates.
  • Range of bulk packs available for greatest economy.
  • Example protocols included with each dye pack.

Select-a-Dye mono-Reactive Dye Packs  

  • Enables a variety of labeling strategies using NHS ester, maleimide, or hydrazide to be investigated.
  • Available as either Cy3 or Cy5.
  • Example protocols included with each dye pack.

Amersham CyDye™ Antibody Labeling Kits  

  • Convenient way to tag antibodies with CyDye™ fluorescent dyes.
  • Conjugations are carried out under mild conditions and are complete within 1 h.
  • Dyes are packaged in premeasured amounts and foil sealed to ensure consistent labelings.
