The Amersham CyDye DIGE Cy5 Minimal Dye, 5 nmol (25801085) is a fluorescent labelling reagent for 2-D Fluorescence Difference Gel Electrophoresis. It is a size- and charge-matched CyDye DIGE minimal dye designed to help detect protein abundance differences using the Ettan DIGE system.
Key Features
- Cy5 minimal dye format, matching the specified Amersham CyDye DIGE Fluor variant
- 5 nmol pack size, supporting selection of the correct Cy5 minimal dye quantity
- Designed for 2-D DIGE workflows, supporting fluorescent detection of protein abundance differences
- Size- and charge-matched dye behaviour, enabling co-migration of labelled samples within the gel
- Multiplex sample analysis support, allowing up to three prelabeled protein samples and standards on the same 2-D electrophoresis gel
- Bright, sensitive fluorescent dye, supporting the minimal labelling technique used in DIGE workflows
- Minimal cross-talk between fluors, contributing to accurate multicolour detection
Benefits
- Helps compare protein abundance differences using a defined Cy5 minimal dye format.
- Supports within-gel matching by allowing differently labelled samples to migrate to the same position on a 2-D gel.
- Helps limit experimental variation by enabling multiplexed samples to share the same first- and second-dimension running conditions.
- Clear 5 nmol and Cy5 identification helps avoid selecting a sibling Cy2, Cy3, or larger pack-size variant.
