ALEXA FLUOR 568 PHALLO 300 U，A12380，Invitrogen

Alexa Fluor® 568 phalloidin is a high-affinity F-actin probe conjugated to our superior Alexa Fluor® 568 dye. Alexa Fluor® 568 dye is photostable and brighter than other red-orange fluorescent dyes like Lissamine rhodamine B and Texas Red-X dye.

• Selectively stains F-actin
• Outstanding fluorescence performance
• Excitation/Emission: 578/600 nm
• Superior to antibody staining
• Optimal for fixed and permeabilized samples

Get Superior Results in Actin Staining Studies
Phalloidin is a bicyclic peptide belonging to a family of toxins isolated from the deadly Amanita phalloides 'death cap' mushroom and is commonly used in imaging applications to selectively label F-actin. Fluorescently-labeled phalloidin has virtually identical binding properties with actin from different species including plants and animals. Phalloidin binds F-actin with high selectivity while Alexa Fluor® 568 provides red-orange fluorescence of unparalleled brightness and photostability. Demonstrating very little nonspecific staining, Alexa Fluor® 568 phalloidin allows high-contrast discrimination of actin staining.

Use in Multiple Applications
Alexa Fluor® 568 phalloidin can be used to visualize and quantitate F-actin in tissue sections, cell cultures, or cell-free preparations. Alexa Fluor® 568 phalloidin staining is fully compatible with other fluorescent stains used in cellular analyses including fluorescent proteins, Qdot® nanocrystals, and other Alexa Fluor® conjugates including secondary antibodies.
