Non-reactive fluorophore, for control experiments, and for calibration
Cy7 carboxylic acid is a near-infrared fluorescent dye which has low aqueous solubility. As for coupling and labeling reactions, pre-activated Cy7 NHS ester or water-soluble sulfo-Cy7 NHS ester would be considered. For biomolecule labeling, the labeling reagent has low aqueous solubility, using of organic co-solvent to dissolve this molecular is necessary for efficient reaction. First, Cyanine dye should be dissolved in organic solvent and then added to a solution of biomolecule in appropriate aqueous buffer.
