AF488 Phalloidin [equivalent to Alexa Fluor(R) 488 phalloidin]

AF488 phalloidin conjugate is chemically equivalent to Alexa Fluor® 488 phalloidin (Alexa Fluor is the trademark of ThermoFisher). This green fluorescent phalloidin conjugate selectively binds to F-actins. Used at nanomolar concentrations, phalloidin derivatives are convenient probes for labeling, identifying and quantitating F-actins in formaldehyde-fixed and permeabilized tissue sections, cell cultures or cell-free experiments. Fluorescent phalloidin derivatives have been used as an important tool in the study of actin networks at high resolution. AAT Bioquest offers a variety of fluorescent phalloidin derivatives with different colors for multicolor imaging applications.
