TAMRA (tetramethylrhodamine) is a xanthene dye of rhodamine series. This fluorophore has been used for quite a long time for the preparation of dual-labeled qPCR TaqMan oligonucleotide probes containing TAMRA and fluorescein (FAM).

Like many other xanthene fluorophores, TAMRA is available as two isomers (5- and 6-isomer) with nearly identical optical properties. This product is an isomerically pure 5-TAMRA.

TAMRA NHS is an amine-reactive reagent. It can be used to label proteins, peptides, and modified oligonucleotides containing amine groups.
