cy-5.5 ethylenediamine

Cy5.5 ethylenediamine is commonly used in biomolecular labeling, fluorescence imaging and other fluorescence biological analysis. Cy5.5 dyes and their derivatives are widely used to label polypeptides, proteins and nucleic acids.

Sulfo-Cyanine5.5 is a water soluble cyanine dye for far red / NIR applications such as in vivo imaging. The dye possesses four sulfonate groups that render it highly hydrophilic and water soluble. As well as other cyanines, sulfo-Cyanine5.5 has an outstanding extinction coefficient that makes it a bright fluorescent label for the far red region.
