Research Use Only

Activated R-Phycoerythrin (R-PE) is an intensely bright phycobiliprotein isolated from newly identified red algae species exclusive to the coastal region of Taiwan. It exhibits extremely bright red-orange fluorescence with high quantum yields, and generates fluorescence signals far stronger than other commonly-seen organic and synthetic fluorophores. Activated R-PE has a maleimide group introduced, which allows it to be conveniently conjugated to the thiol groups of proteins, without the need for additional activation and purification. This facilitates the rapid conjugation of PE to antibodies, other proteins, and reagents.

Store in the dark at 2-8°C. Avoid prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze!
