Description
- Product Overview: FITC-dextran sulfates are highly sulfated dextran molecules covalently labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), combining strong negative charge with bright green fluorescence. Available in 4 kDa, 10 kDa, 40 kDa, and 500 kDa molecular weights, FITC-dextran Sulfates are ideal for permeability studies, barrier function assays, and molecular interaction research where anionic tracers are required.
- Features:
- Green Fluorescence: Excitation maximum at 495 nm and emission maximum at 519 nm, compatible with standard FITC filter sets.
- Highly Sulfated Structure: Provides strong negative charge density, mimicking the behavior of naturally occurring polyanions like heparin.
- Wide Molecular Weight Range: Offered at 4 kDa, 10 kDa, 40 kDa, and 500 kDa to match different permeability and diffusion model requirements.
- Water-Soluble: Fully soluble in aqueous media, facilitating easy preparation for biological and analytical experiments.
- Controlled Labeling and Consistency: Manufactured under strict specifications to ensure reproducible fluorescence intensity and sulfation degree across batches.
- Benefits:
- Reliable Permeability Probes: Ideal for studying transport properties across biological membranes, vascular barriers, and engineered tissues.
- Electrostatic Interaction Research: Useful for investigating binding to cationic proteins, peptides, or biomaterials.
- Modeling Charged Molecule Behavior: Acts as an analog for anionic macromolecules in studies of transport, adsorption, and separation.
- Flexible Application Across Systems: Suitable for live-cell, tissue culture, microfluidics, and in vivo tracer studies.
- Bright and Stable Fluorescence: Enables sensitive detection and quantitative analysis using fluorescence-based methods.
- Applications:
- Barrier Function Assays: Used to assess the integrity of epithelial and endothelial monolayers, including gut and blood-brain barrier models.
- Vascular Permeability Studies: Applied to measure vascular leakiness under physiological and pathological conditions.
- Charge-Dependent Binding Studies: Investigates interactions between anionic molecules and cationic surfaces or proteins.
- Tracer Studies in Microfluidics and Perfusion Systems: Tracks the movement of charged molecules through engineered or natural channels.
- Cell Culture and Tissue Engineering Models: Maps molecular diffusion and barrier formation in tissue constructs and organoids.
- Technical Specifications:
- Fluorescence: Excitation maximum at 495 nm, emission maximum at 519 nm.
- Molecular Weights: 4 kDa, 10 kDa, 40 kDa, and 500 kDa.
- Appearance: Light-sensitive, greenish dry powder, readily soluble in water.
- Sulfation Level: High, typically 16 to 20% sulfur content, depending on grade.
- Storage and Stability:
- Store dry, protected from light, at 2°C to 8°C for maximum stability and fluorescence preservation.
- Stable under recommended conditions for long-term storage and experimental reliability.
- Packaging and Availability:
- Supplied as dry powder, facilitating long shelf life and ease of storage.
- Available in various pack sizes to support both small-scale experiments and larger research projects.
