Literature Highlights
Frequently Asked Technical QuestionQUESTION: What are the relative extinction coefficients of 5'-Fluorescein, Hex and Tet etc.. at 260 nm and their Lambda max? RESPONSE:Please see http://www.glenresearch.com/Technical/Extinctions.html REFERENCE(S): QUESTION: What are the relative extinction coefficients of various dyes? RESPONSE:Please see http://www.glenres.com/Technical/Extinctions.html#dyes QUESTION: Does AMA or methylamine cause any degradation to fluorescein or fluorescein-type dyes such as FAM or FITC? RESPONSE:Response: While AMA (Ammonium hydroxide/40% Methylamine 1:1 v/v) is considered compatible with fluorescein, the use of methylamine when deprotecting a Fluorescein-labeled oligo does lead to a small amount of degradation, which is characterized by a the appearance of a late-eluting peak by RP HPLC that shows no visible fluorescein absorbance. With standard deprotection conditions (AMA 10 minutes at 65 C) the amount of degradation is approximately 5%. The impurity is not detected with AMA at RT for 2 hours. 11/04/2011 | http://www.glenres.com/ProductFiles/20-5910.html | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
