Dextran CLIO Magnetic Nanoparticles - Fluorescent Dye, 40 kDa, AFDye 555

Dextran Size: 40 kDa
Fluorescent Dye Label: AFDye 555
Volume (@ 5 mg/mL Fe): 1 mL

General Information:
Fluorescent dye functionalized Dextran coated crosslinked iron oxide nanoparticles (CLIO-DYE) have 1-3 superparamagnetic Fe3O4 iron oxide cores (8-10 nm in diameter) imbedded within the matrix of dextran sugar strands of 40 kDa or 70 kDa size. Dextran strands are crosslinked to prevent their disassociation, ensuring long-term biological stability. Fluorophores are covalently conjugated to the nanoparticle surface.

Features:
Highly magnetic
Highly biocompatible, non-toxic
Fluorescently labeled (AFDye 488, AFDye 555, AFDye 647, or IR750 dye)
Long term stable under physiological conditions
40 kDa and 70 kDa dextran coats are available
Dual-modality magnetic and fluorescence probes
