Description

Albumin Blue 580 Potassium Salt Sol. is a specialized, water-soluble fluorescent dye designed for sensitive protein detection and quantification. This compound is critical for researchers and quality control laboratories requiring high-affinity, stoichiometric binding to serum albumin for accurate analytical measurements. It is primarily utilized in the life sciences, diagnostic reagent manufacturing, and biochemical research sectors for applications such as gel staining and assay development.

Application

• Biochemical Research & Assay Development: Used as a specific fluorescent probe for the detection and quantification of serum albumin (e.g., BSA, HSA) in solution-based assays.
• Diagnostic Reagent Manufacturing: Incorporated into clinical chemistry kits and reagents for the measurement of albumin levels in biological samples.
• Gel Electrophoresis Staining: Employed for the sensitive, fluorescent staining of albumin and other proteins in SDS-PAGE and other gel-based separation techniques.
• Protein Binding Studies: Serves as a high-affinity ligand in studies investigating protein-ligand interactions, binding kinetics, and site occupancy.
• Quality Control in Biopharmaceuticals: Applied in purity testing and process monitoring for albumin-containing therapeutic products.
• Cellular & Tissue Imaging: Utilized in fluorescence microscopy for visualizing albumin uptake or localization in cell culture and tissue samples.
