abberior STAR deepRED
Item number
STDEEPRED
Description
abberior STAR deepRED expands the abberior dye portfolio into the near-infrared (NIR) spectral range. Optimized for confocal and STED microscopy, it delivers bright fluorescence with minimal background signal and high photostability and is compatible with 775 nm STED depletion lasers. The dye can be efficiently excited with lasers around 680 nm and represents an excellent alternative to dyes such as CF680R, Alexa Fluor® 680, Cy®5.5, DyLight® 680, IRDye® 680LT, etc. Together with abberior STAR BLUE, GREEN, ORANGE, and RED, it enables flexible five-color imaging across a wide spectral range.
