General description
Abberior STAR 580 is the latest development for STED microscopy with a fluorescent dye in the orange regime. The dye can be excited from 550 to 580 nm. Abberior STAR 580 can substitute dyes like Atto™ 590/594 or AlexaFluor 584/594. The dye can most effectively be depleted in STED microscopy at 700 to 780 nm via e.g. a Ti:Sa laser or IR diodes.
Abberior STAR 580 is the dye of choice for orange fluorescence. Moreover, the dye is particularly designed and tested for 2-color STED microscopy in combination with Abberior STAR 635 using 2 separate STED wavelength. This offers the great advantage of using 2 regular (not featuring a long Stokes-shift) dyes, which are in general more photostable. Please see our 2-color dye section

Application
Anti-Mouse IgG-Abberior® STAR 580 antibody produced in goat has been used for STED (stimulated emission depletion) microscopy in CA3 (Cornus Ammonis) sections. Abberior® STAR 580 conjugated with secondary antibody has been used for dual-color STED imaging of cultured hippocampal neurons.
Suitability
Designed and tested for fluorescent super-resolution microscopy

Persistent experience-driven adaptation of brain function is associated with alterations in gene expression patterns, resulting in structural and functional neuronal remodeling. How synaptic activity-in particular presynaptic performance-is coupled to gene expression in nucleus remains incompletely understood. Here, we report on

KCNQ2 (Kv7.2) and KCNQ3 (Kv7.3) K(+) channels dampen neuronal excitability and their functional impairment may lead to epilepsy. Less is known about KCNQ5 (Kv7.5), which also displays wide expression in the brain. Here we show an unexpected role of KCNQ5

We overcame the resolution limit of scanning far-field fluorescence microscopy by disabling the fluorescence from the outer part of the focal spot. Whereas a near-UV pulse generates a diffraction-limited distribution of excited molecules, a spatially offset pulse quenches the excited

Lens-based optical microscopy failed to discern fluorescent features closer than 200 nm for decades, but the recent breaking of the diffraction resolution barrier by sequentially switching the fluorescence capability of adjacent features on and off is making nanoscale imaging routine. Reported

Utilizing single fluorescent molecules as probes, we prove the ability of a far-field microscope to attain spatial resolution down to 16 nm in the focal plane, corresponding to about 1/50 of the employed wavelength. The optical bandwidth expansion by nearly
