Vigna radiata Lectin (VRA) - Texas Red
Cat: PL00194
Size: 2 mg
Sugar Specificity: α-Galactose
Datasheet:
Description
Texas red is a red fluorescent dye that, when combined with Vigna radiata lectin (VRA), can show the binding pattern of this lectin in cell imaging applications. There is little overlap between the emission spectra of Texas Red and FITC, making this combination ideal for double-labeling experiments. Rhodamine dyes, such as Texas red, have better light stability and are less sensitive to pH changes than other dyes such as fluorescein.
