IRDye® 800CW Carboxylate

Assays that use IRDye 800CW conjugates (such as in vivo imaging and cell binding assays) may require a “dye-only” control for potential effects or retention of the dye.

Carboxylate (non-reactive) form of IRDye 800CW is an ideal control.

使用 IRDye 800CW 偶联物的检测(例如体内成像和细胞结合检测)可能需要“仅染料”对照来控制染料的潜在影响或保留。

IRDye 800CW 的羧酸盐(非反应性)形式是理想的对照。

Note: The carboxylate dye has no reactive group and cannot be used for labeling.

IRDye® 800CW Carboxylate
Clearance kinetics of IRDye 800CW carboxylate. A single SCID mouse was injected with 1 nmol of non-reactive IRDye 800CW dye, and clearance monitored over time as indicated. Pseudocolor fluorescence is superimposed on a white light image. IRDye 800CW carboxylate dispersed rapidly and was completely cleared after 48 h. Originally published in Kovar, J., et al.

How is IRDye 800CW Carboxylate Used?

In vitro Cell-based Assays

As a control for cell-based assays that monitor binding of a dye-labeled agent.

  • Validation of optical agents for in vivo administration
  • Evaluation of binding specificity

In vivo Imaging

For evaluation of behavior and clearance of the dye itself.

  • Timing of dye clearance from the animal’s body
  • Retention of dye in certain organs or sites (e.g., liver or kidneys)

Labeling Reaction Reference

As a standard to determine the amount of unreacted (“free”) dye after IRDye 800CW conjugation and purification.

Residual unreacted dye may cause:

  • Artificially high values when dye/protein (D/P) ratio is calculated
  • Increased background fluorescence in biological assays
