Amersham CyDye DIGE Fluor Minimal Labeling Kit, 5 nmol
Allow detection of up to three prelabeled protein samples and standards on the same 2D electrophoresis gel.
Size and chargematched dyes enable comigration of labeled samples within the gel.
Bright and highly sensitive dyes allow the use of the minimal labeling technique.
Minimal loss of signal during labeling, separation, and scanning.
No change in signal over wide pH range used during firstdimension (IEF) separation.
Discrete signal from each fluor with minimal crosstalk contributes to high accuracy.
CyDye DIGE fluors are available as minimal and saturation labeling dyes. The minimal dyes are intended for general 2D application use where sufficient amounts of sample are available. The saturation dyes from the Scarce Sample Labeling Kit are designed to be used for applications where only small amounts of sample are available, for example in Laser Capture Microdissection. In total, three minimal dyes and two saturation dyes are available.
CyDye DIGE fluors are exceptional dyes for multicolor analysis, offering bright and intense colors with narrow excitation and emission bands. The fluors are spectrally distinct, making them highly suitable for multicolor detection. CyDye DIGE fluors utilize these benefits but are also size and chargematched specifically for 2D DIGE using Ettan DIGE system.
