Seta-780-NHS (K8-7055) is a hydrophilic, amine-reactive label containing one NHS-ester group with almost identical absorption and emission as ICG and can therefore be used with these filter sets.
Applications
Covalent labeling of proteins, amino-modified DNA and amino-modified oligonucleotides
Fluorescence intensity and fluorescence polarization-based applications
Resonance Energy Transfer (RET)
Flow Cytometry
Immunofluorescence
Gene Expression
Homogeneous Assays
Microarrays
Advantages
Perfectly suited for excitation with the 700 nm, 750 nm or 780 nm diode lasers
Sensitive; high extinction coefficients and the quantum yield in water is as much as twice higher compared to Indocyanine green (ICG)
pH-insensitive between pH 3 and pH 10
Good aqueous solubility; this label does not alter the solubility of bioconjugates
High photostability
Low molecular weight — Seta-780 does not add substantial mass to the conjugates
Ideal for non-radioactive labeling of proteins, amino-modified oligonucleotides and amino-modified lipids
