Fluorescein (FAM) is a bright fluorophore that has found an extremely wide application in life science research. The fluorophore is hydrophilic and its derivatives possess good solubility in aqueous buffers.

Fluorescein is compatible with a wide variety of fluorescent instrumentation - most instruments are equipped with FAM channel filters.

This product contains the pure 6-isomer of fluorescein.

FAM amine, 5-isomer

Amino derivative of fluorescein, pure 5-isomer. Contains a linker arm between the aliphatic amine group, and the fluorophore. Useful for the labeling via enzymatic transamination, for the reactions with electrophilic reagents, and for reductive amination.

THPTA ligand

THPTA is a water-soluble ligand for Cu(I)-catalyzed click chemistry. The ligand stabilizes copper in its Cu(I) oxidation state. Due to high aqueous solubility, reactions with this ligand do not require an organic co-solvent.
