Cy5 hydrazide is a cyanine dye containing hydrazide, which can be used to label aldehydes and ketones. This reagent allows to label various carbonyl-containing molecules such as antibodies and other glycoproteins after periodate oxidation, proteins after oxidative stress or deamination, or reducing saccarides.
Cyanine5 hydrazide replaces carbonyl-reactive Cy5?, Alexa Fluor 647, DyLight 649 dyes.
