Greater selection of NucSpot® Nuclear Stains promotes further precision, efficiency, and reliability in cell imaging with selective nuclear targeting and exceptional photostability
Biotium, a leader in fluorescent dyes for life science research, announces the expansion of its NucSpot® Nuclear Stains lineup, offering unprecedented specificity and flexibility for nuclear counterstaining. NucSpot® Nuclear Stains are membrane-impermeant, targeting the nucleus selectively with minimal fluorescence until binding to DNA, enabling convenient no-wash nuclear staining. Unlike traditional options such as propidium iodide (PI), TO-PRO®, or TOTO®, NucSpot® achieves nuclear specificity in fixed and permeabilized cells without the need for RNase treatment.
Now with an extensive selection of 9 colors spanning the fluorescence spectrum from green to near-infrared (near-IR), NucSpot® Nuclear Stains provide greater panel flexibility, compatible with FITC, Cy®3, PE, Texas Red®, Cy®5, APC, Cy®5.5, and Cy®7 channels. Several options are non-toxic, suitable for cell cycle profiling by flow cytometry, and can be incubated in live cultures for multi-day imaging.
