Cyanine5.5 maleimide(Cat No.:I025340)is a fluorescent dye used in various bioconjugation and imaging applications. It consists of the cyanine5.5 fluorophore, known for its strong near-infrared fluorescence, and a maleimide group, which allows it to specifically react with thiol groups on proteins, peptides, or other biomolecules. This makes it useful in labeling and tracking biomolecules in biological studies, including imaging, flow cytometry, and molecular diagnostics. The near-infrared emission of Cyanine5.5 maleimide provides deeper tissue penetration and minimal background interference, making it valuable for in vivo imaging and sensitive detection of biomolecular interactions.
