Fluorescein (FAM) is one of the oldest yet well-known fluorescent dyes. This derivative of FAM contains the cyclooctyne group (dibenzocyclooctyne, DBCO or ADIBO). Pure 6-isomer. DBCO reacts quickly and efficiently with azides by simply mixing the components without the need for a copper catalyst (so-called sterically promoted cycloaddition reaction or SPAAC).
FAM DBCO can be used for the labeling of proteins, peptides, nucleic acids, and other molecules containing azide groups. Fluorescein can be detected using a variety of different instruments.
