Description

General description

CF^™405M is a blue fluorescent dye spectrally similar to Pacific Blue^™ dye. CF^™405M is as bright as Pacific Blue^™ dye but is significantly more photostable than the latter. An additional advantage of CF^™405M is that it has less spillover in the 525/50 green channel than Pacific Blue^™ dye due to narrower emission peak, making CF^™405M a superior choice in multi-color detection applications. We also offer CF^™405S, another 405 nm-excitable dye with an even shorter emission wavelength.

Features and Benefits

1. More photostable than Pacific Blue^™ dye. 2. As bright as Pacific Blue^™ dye in the 450/50 blue channel while having less spillover in the 525/50 green channel. 3. Highly water-soluble.
