AMCA-PEG4-Acid

AMCA (7-amino-4-methyl-3-coumarinacetic acid) is a blue fluorescent dye that is a non-sulfonated version of the Alexa Fluor® 350 dye. It is often used as a contrasting probe for double-and triple-labeling in immunofluorescence microscopy, arrays, and in situ hybridization. The desirable properties of AMCA dyes include a relatively large Stoke’s shift and resistance to photobleaching.（AMCA-PEG4-Acid ）This reagent is supplied as Boc protected derivative to ensure compatibility with Fmoc solid phase peptide synthesis. The hydrophilic spacer arm contains a hydrophilic, 4-unit, polyethylene glycol (PEG) group imparts water solubility of the labeled peptide resulting in less aggregation when stored in aqueous solution. Spacers of different lengths are available upon request.
