ALBUMIN, BOVINE-TETRAMETHYL RHODAMINE IS

Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ Tetramethylrhodamine isothiocyanate (TRITC) is stable and less sensitive to light compared to fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC). The conjugate of albumin with TRITC is effective for following microcirculation in vivo microscopy. Albumin-TRITC aids tracking of calcium phosphate nanoparticle bound DNA in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (T-HUVEC)._x000D_ Application_x000D_ Albumin, Tetramethylrhodamine isothiocyanate has been used:_x000D_ • in photoinduced release assay of polyethylene beads_x000D_ • for passivating poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) layer prior to immunoglobulin G coating_x000D_ • in fluorescent correlation spectroscopy_x000D_ Red-fluorescing TRITC-albumin was used to track the uptake of calcium phosphate/DNA nanoparticles during cell transfection. The dye-linked albumin is incorporated into the nanoparticles. Efficiency of transfection could be followed by fluorescence microscopy._x000D_ Packaging_x000D_ 10, 50 mg in poly bottle_x000D_ Preparation Note_x000D_ Prepared from crystallized and lyophilized albumin (A4378).
