Fluorescein (FAM) amine, isomerically pure dye (5-isomer). Unlike fluoresceinamine, this reagent contains a linker arm with an aliphatic amine group that is more reactive. It can react with electrophilic reagents like activated esters or epoxides, and be involved in enzymatic transamination.

BDP® TR amine

BDP TR borondipyrromethene dye with a free amine group for the conjugation with electrophilic reagents and enzymatic transamination reaction. BDP TR is a bright dye for the ROX channel.

AF 343 (Coumarin)-X-NHS ester

AF 343 (Coumarin) is a blue emitting dye that can serve as a FRET donor for fluorescein (FAM). This structure features a linker between Coumarin 343 fluorophore, and the functional group. It provides better solubility, and spatial separation between the dye, and the functional group.
