KODAK X-SIGHT Large Stokes Shift Dye Conjugates are easy to use and are ideal for western blotting applications, which use gel electrophoresis to separate proteins from a sample of cell or tissue based on molecular weight and size, and microscopy. There are no other commercially available dyes that naturally have a large Stokes shift in the near infra-red range, making this a novel and innovative product.
KODAK X-SIGHT Large Stokes Shift Dye Conjugates are available conjugated to a variety of secondary antibodies in two distinct excitation and emission wavelengths in the near infrared range. To minimize cross reactivity, the secondary antibodies have been affinity purified and highly cross-adsorbed.
While the KODAK X-SIGHT Imaging Agents have been optimized for KODAK In-Vivo Imaging Systems and KODAK Image Stations, they are also compatible with other commercially available digital imaging systems.
