Tocris Bioscience™ Thioflavin T
Fluorescent amyloid stain, binds to the stacked β sheets of amyloid fibrils
Brand: Tocris Bioscience™ 7122/500
Description
Thioflavin T is a cell-permeable fluorescent amyloid stain. This cationic benzothiazole dye increases in fluorescence upon binding to the stacked β sheets of amyloid fibrils. Thioflavin T is used to confirm formation of β sheet structure from mutant huntingtin exon-1 aggregates (Ex1Q48) in vitro. Thioflavin T is also used to monitor the kinetics of in vitro polyglutamine amyloid formation of tNhtt-42Q aggregates in a Huntington's disease cell model. Insoluble senile plaques of Aβ in brain tissues are commonly stained with Thioflavin T. Excitation/emission maxima = 440/485 nm.This product is supplied with a high degree of hydration and some residual inorganic salts, the amount of which are batch dependent.
