Oyster® 680 Fluorescent Dye Oligo Labeling
The Oyster®-680 fluorophore can be incorporated at any position within an Oligonucleotide. Oyster-680 is a negatively charged cyanine based dye which is well suited for replacing Cy3, Alexa Fluor® 555, Dylight® 550 fluorophores. The Oyster®-680 fluorophore is especially recommended for the replacement of Cy3 in applications such as microarray and FISH.
A primary amine modified oligonucleotide allows covalent attachment of the Oyster 680 fluorophore via NHS conjugation chemistry. However, other cross-linking chemistries are also available depending on particular project specifications. After oligonucleotide synthesis and dye conjugation, a dual HPLC purification is used to remove failure sequences and excessive dye quantitatively to obtain a full length labeled oligonucleotide.

Extinction Coefficient, ε(λ):
250,000 M-1 x cm-1
Lyophilized; Protect from light
-20°C To -70°C
Oligonucleotides are stable in solution at 4°C for up to 2 weeks. Properly reconstituted material stored at -20°C should be stable for at least 6 months. Dried DNA (when kept at -20°C) in a nuclease-free environment should be stable for years.
