FAM NHS ester

FAM NHS ester is a reactive form of bright green dye used to generate a stable fluorescence signal in bioimaging. The maxima of Ex/Em values are at 494/520 nm, similar to that of Alexa 488 and Cy2. FAM might be excited using 488 nm laser line and displays good optical property. NHS esters readily react with amine-modified oligonucleotides or amino groups of proteins, i.e. the ε-amino groups of lysine or the amine terminus of nucleotides to form a chemically stable amide bond between dye and the biomolecule. We offer FAM NHS ester for labeling of antibodies, peptides, proteins and nucleotide.
