Product Description

CF® dyes with a methanethiosulfonate (MTS) group are fast-reacting and highly selective thiol-reactive derivatives that can be used to attach fluorescent CF® dyes to thiol groups. Labeling can be easily reversed using reducing agents like DTT or TCEP.

  • Rapid and highly-selective labeling of thiol groups on target molecules with fluorescent CF® dyes.
  • Labeling is reversible using reducing reagents like TCEP and DTT.
  • Bright, photostable and water-soluble CF® dyes are excellent options for fluorescent labeling.

Superior CF® Dyes
CF® dyes are Biotium’s line of next-generation fluorescent dyes that have improved brightness, photostability and water solubility compared to other commercially available fluorescent dyes.
