Cyanine3 maleimide tetrafluoroborate 

Cyanine3 maleimide tetrafluoroborate is a specific labeling reagent for sulfhydryl groups with the λ_ex of 550 nm and λ_em of 580 nm. Cyanine3 maleimide tetrafluoroborate can be used for protein and peptide labeling^[1][2].

Guidelines (Following is our recommended protocol. This protocol only provides a guideline, and should be modified according to your specific needs). Labeling of Protein: 1.The protein concentration was adjusted to 1 mg/mL for 100 μL. 2. A 100 μL aliquot of the protein solution was mixed with Cyanine3 maleimide tetrafluoroborate (8 μg) in DMSO (2 μL). 3. Incubated overnight at 4 °C in the dark. 4. Labeled proteins were desalted using a G25 desalting column to remove excessive Cyanine3 maleimide tetrafluoroborate. 5. Fluorescence intensities (FI) of labeled proteins were measured at excitation and emission wavelengths of 550 nm and 570 nm, respectively. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
