Product Specifications

Product Specific Information

This antibody is specific for fluorescein I.

Target Information

FITC (fluorescein isothiocyanate) is a fluorochrome dye that absorbs ultraviolet or blue light, causing molecules to become excited and emit a visible yellow-green light. This emission ceases upon removal of the excitation light.
Fluorochrome labeling provides rapid, accurate localization of antigen-antibody interactions when one of the reactants is part of a cell, tissue, or other biological structure.

FITC is a commonly used marker for antibodies in immunofluorescent techniques since conjugation of FITC to proteins is relatively easy and generally does not destroy the biological activity of the labeled protein.
FITC is widely used as a hapten to label different proteins. Anti-FITC antibodies can be used for isolating FITC-labeled cells via magnetic microbead sorting and for removing background signals.
