Synthesis and structure

Antonia Red™ dextrans are synthesised from well-characterized dextran fractions derived from Leuconostoc mesenteroides labelled with Antonia Red. After purification from non-bound dye, the products are controlled for Mw, appearance, solubility, DS, fluorescence and free dye. The products are designated by the approximate molecular weights of the dextran fractions used. Thus, for example, the product Antonia Red dextran 4 has a molecular weight of approx. 4000 Da. 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.

Spectral properties

Antonia Red dextran has an absorbance maximum at 583 nm (in borate buffer, pH 9.0) and an emission wavelength of 602 nm. The dye residue exhibits high photo- and chemical stability and bright fluorescence. The DS lies between 0.001-0.01.

Stability

No prospective stability studies on Antonia Red-dextrans have been performed. However, the structural properties of the dextran carrier and those of the chemical linkage of the Antonia Red-dye to the dextran chain would suggest good stability of the product. It is recommended that the products are stored in air-tight containers in the dark. Antonia Red dextrans may be stored at ambient temperatures.

Applications

Antonia Red dextrans are primarily used for studying permeability and transport in cells and tissues, trace cell lineage and perform vasculature studies. An added benefit 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 intra-vital fluorescence microscopy. The technique offers high sensitivity and concentrations down to 1μg/ml can be detected in tissue fluids.

Antonia Red-葡聚糖是由來源于用Antonia紅標記的間質明串珠菌。從非結合染料中純化后控制產品的分子量、外觀、溶解度、DS、熒光和游離染料。產品由所用葡聚糖級分的近似分子量表示。因此，對于例如，產品Antonia Red右旋糖酐4的分子量約為4000Da

分子量通過GPC測定。此值隨分析證書一起提供。這個所用的右旋糖酐來自間質明串珠菌B-512F，其本質上是線性α-（1-6）連接的然而，沿鏈分布的α-（1-3）分支的百分比較低（2-5%）。所使用的葡聚糖級分的Mw為4000至150000，并通過GPC、光學旋轉、吸光度和其他控制參數。

應用：

Antonia Red-葡聚糖主要用于研究細胞和組織中的滲透性和轉運，追蹤細胞譜系并進行脈管系統研究。另一個好處是熒光提供了關于健康和患病組織的滲透性的定量數據。這樣的研究可以通過活體內熒光顯微鏡實時進行。該技術提供在組織液中可以檢測到高靈敏度和低至1μg/ml的濃度。安東尼婭·雷德在熒光顯微鏡中使用紅色（得克薩斯紅）濾光片，葡聚糖具有明亮的熒光。
