Background: FITC

Fluorescein isothiocyante (FITC) is a derivative of fluorescein modified with an isothiocyanate reactive group (-N=C=S).  FITC is often used to label antibodies for immunofluorescent cytochemistry and histochemistry. FITC can be also conjugated to proteins and RNA and DNA probes because such conjugation does not impair biological activity of these molecules. In some experimental setups FITC fluorescence may need to be enhanced, which is done by employing anti-FITC antibodies conjugated either to FITC or other fluorophores with similar excitation and emission spectra.
