Bio-Rad announced three new StarBright Violet Dyes for flow cytometry: StarBright Violet 570, StarBright Violet 670, and StarBright Violet 710. According to the company, the dyes have been designed to improve brightness and excitation and emission spectra for use in multicolor flow cytometry panels. The line of StarBright dyes was made to provide researchers with a range of fluorescent nanoparticles conjugated to highly cited validated flow antibodies. The dyes are compatible with new and existing protocols for use in multiplex panels. In addition, the company claims they are resistant to photobleaching and stable with a minimal lot-to-lot variation.
