Description

Description: MaxLight™550 is a new Yellow-Green photostable dye conjugate comparable to Alexa Fluor™546, 555, DyLight™549 , Cy3™, TRITC and offers better labeling efficiency, brighter imaging and increased immunodetection. Absorbance (550nm); Emission (575nm); Extinction Coefficient 150,000. Recognizes alpha smooth muscle actin. Actins are highly conserved proteins that play a role in cell contractile activity, motility, cytokinesis, and in maintaining cell structure. Alpha smooth muscle actin is expressed in vascular smooth muscle, myofibroblasts and myoepithelial cells and also in tumors derived from these cells.
