Description

  • Amine-reactive, non-fluorescent quencher containing one reactive NHS-ester group
  • Very broad visible-wavelength absorption spectrum
  • Efficient energy transfer acceptor for NIR-fluorescent dyes (Cy5TM, Cy5.5TM, Cy7TM, and Alexa 680TM) in FRET applications

 

Applications

  • Covalent labeling of proteins, peptides, amino-modified DNA and amino-modified oligonucleotides
  • Energy Transfer (RET) acceptor for molecular beacons and other FRET based applications
  • Real-time PCR
  • Homogeneous Assays

 

Advantages

  • pH-insensitive between pH 3 and pH 10 
  • Low molecular weight  — SQ dyes do not add substantial mass to the conjugates 
  • Ideal for non-radioactive labeling of proteins, amino-modified DNA probes and amino-modified oligonucleotides
