Beschrijving
ROTI Fluor 550 NHS Ester is a fluorescent dye NHS ester with empirical formula C₃₆H₄₁N₃K₂O₁₃S₃ and a molar mass of 898,11 g/mol. The reagent is packed as 1 mg in plastic for laboratory use in life science, particularly histology, microscopy and fluorescent staining. NHS esters of fluorescent dyes are employed to introduce a covalent fluorescent label onto primary amines of biomolecules prior to imaging or staining. The 1 mg plastic pack supports small-scale labelling work and inventory control in research settings. Specification data from manufacturer Carl ROTH give the molar mass as 898,11 g/mol together with the empirical formula C₃₆H₄₁N₃K₂O₁₃S₃, enabling straightforward identity confirmation on receipt. In histology and microscopy, such fluorescent dyes are used to stain specimens so that labelled structures can be visualised. The NHS ester format is the reactive functionality for coupling the 550 fluorophore to amine-containing targets. Laboratories can therefore treat ROTI Fluor 550 NHS Ester as a defined chemical reagent for fluorescent staining workflows, relying on the stated formula, molar mass and 1 mg plastic presentation as the documented product attributes.
