Functional Dyes for Flow Cytometry

Flow cytometry is recognized as a valuable tool for deciphering complex cellular processes and interactions in a variety of systems that model normal and disease states. The evolution of flow cytometry as a fundamental tool in life science is fueled by technological advances underscoring the need for reagents that empower the use of multiparametric flow cytometry. Whether isolating viable cells, identifying apoptotic cells, or monitoring cell division, eBioscience offers a wide selection of dyes, biochemicals and nanocrystals, to help discriminate the cells of interest and allow flexibility in excitation source.

The development of violet (405 nm) laser-excitable fluorophores under the eFluor® brand, including both biocompatible nanocrystal and organic dyes, provides an opportunity to expand existing multicolor experiments to include robust signals using the violet laser. With emission wavelengths from blue to orange to red, eFluors can be successfully conjugated to most antibody specificities, or used to label your own unique antibody in under 30 minutes with one of our eFluor Nanocrystal Conjugation Kits.
