Sulforhodamine B is a fluorescent dye.
Sulforhodamine B can be used as a protein tag - by sulfamido condensation with a proteinaceous substrate containing a primary amine function. Sulforhodamine B will fluoresce red. Because of its red fluorescence it can be used in conjuction with fluorescein isothiocyanate (which fluoresces yellowish-green).
