Sulfo-Cy5 azide is a sulfonated, hydrophilic and highly water soluble dye for Click chemistry. Due to this features, the dye can be used for labeling biomolecules, especially useful for the labeling of delicate proteins and proteins prone to denaturation, purely aqueous conditions. Sulfo-Cy5 azide is not only a sulfonated but also a popular fluorophore. For labeling proteins and peptides, no organic co-solvent is needed. In life science, the sulfonate groups make the Cy dyes soluble in water and also reduce fluorescence-quenching which can arise from dye–dye interactions.
