IRIS™ Dyes in Activated Ester (NHS) format
What Are They?
IRIS™ Dyes are proprietary innovative fluorescent dyes belonging to the family of cyanine dyes, characterized
by high absorbency and quantum yield, strong photo stability and huge versatility of applications
from labeling of antibodies, proteins, and nucleic acids, to molecular imaging, in vivo
optical imaging, cell imaging and click chemistry.
Product Description:
IRIS™ NHS Active Esters are succinimidyl derivatives of IRIS Dyes with absorption and emission maxima in the visible and
near infrared region of the spectrum. They are suitable for conjugation with any biomolecule carrying free primary
amines, such as proteins, peptides, amino-modified antibodies, or biopolymers.
IRIS™ dyes are intensely colored and stain on contact, therefore, always wear gloves when working with them. Due to
their water solubility clean-up with water and detergents is suggested.
