High-affinity F-actin probe conjugated to bright, photostable, near-infrared fluorescent Alexa Fluor 680 dye
Manufacturer: Invitrogen™ A22286
Description
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 680 provides near-infrared fluorescence of unparalleled brightness and photostability. Demonstrating very little nonspecific staining, Alexa Fluor 680 phalloidin allows high-contrast discrimination of actin staining.
- Selectively stains F-actin
- Outstanding fluorescence performance
- Excitation/Emission: 679/702nm
- Superior to antibody staining
- Optimal for fixed and permeabilized samples
- Fully compatible with other fluorescent stains used in cellular analyses including fluorescent proteins, Qdot™ nanocrystals, and other Alexa Fluor conjugates including secondary antibodies
Cell Analysis, Cell Structure, Cytoskeleton. Visualize and quantitate F-actin in tissue sections, cell cultures, or cell-free preparations.
