Synthesis and structure

Atto™-dextrans are synthesised from well-characterized dextran fractions derived from Leuconostoc mesenteroides via the succinimidyl-derivative of Atto488. After purification from non-bound dye, the products are controlled for Mw, solubility, DS, free dye and loss on drying.

The products are designated by the approximate molecular weights of the dextran fractions used. Thus, for example, the product Atto-dextran 4 has a molecular weight of approx. 4000. The actual molecular weight is determined by GPC. This value is supplied with the Certificate of Analysis. The dextran used is from Leuconostoc mesenteroides B-512F which is essentially a linear α-(1-6)-linked

glucose chain with however a low percentage (2-5%) of α-(1-3) branches distributed along the chain. The dextran fractions used are from Mw of 4000 to 150000 and are carefully controlled by GPC, optical rotation, absorbance and other control parameters.

ATTO488-葡聚糖的結構特征

Spectral properties

Atto488-dextran has an absorbance maximum at 502 nm (in borate buffer, pH 9.0) and an emission wavelength of 524 nm. The Atto-dye has a somewhat higher quantum yield than fluorescein and displays a better photo-stability. The DS lies between 0.001-0.008.

Applications

Atto488-dextrans are primarily used for studying permeability and transport in cells and tissues. An added bene?fit is that measurements of the fluorescence provide quantitative data on the permeability of healthy and diseased tissues. Such studies can be performed in real time by intravital fluorescence microscopy. The technique offers high sensitivity and concentrations down to 1μg/ml can be detected in tissue fluids
