Pyrene is a polyaromatic hydrocarbon which exhibits fluorescence in blue range of the spectrum. When two pyrene residues are closely spaced, excimer fluorescence is observed at longer wavelength. Therefore, pyrene is useful as a proximity label.
Pyrene exhibits affinity to graphite, and can be used as an anchor group for graphite. This reagent can be conjugated with biomolecules for their subsequent immobilization on graphite surfaces.
This NHS ester allows to label biomolecules with amino groups, such as proteins, peptides, amino-DNA and other molecules.
Pyrene is also a FRET donor for perylene.

Biotin azide is a reagent for click chemistry labeling with biotin, a well-known affinity probe to streptavidin.AF 594 NHS ester
Red-fluorescent NHS-ester of AF 594 dye for labeling proteins, peptides, antibodies, and any molecules containing an -NH2 group. Pure 5-isomerAF 343 (Coumarin)-X-azide
AF 343 (Coumarin) is a blue emitting fluorophore that can serve as a FRET donor for fluorescein (FAM). This azide derivative can be conjugated with alkynes by сlick chemistry. An extended linker arm between the fluorophore and the azide group enhances solubility and provides spatial separation between the dye and the biomolecule.General properties
