RedDot

RedDot1 is a far-red cell membrane-permeable nuclear dye similar to Draq5. The dye is ideal for specifically staining the nuclei of live cells. RedDot1 can be used to stain adherent or suspension cells. The dye is highly thermostable and photostable, providing convenient handling and ideal for demanding applications such as confocal microscopy. RedDot1 has excitation/emission maxima at 662/694 nm, for detection in the Cy5 channel. It also can be excited at a wide range of wavelengths between 488 nm and 647 nm, including the 488 nm laser for flow cytometry.

Please note: far-red dyes like RedDot1 are not visible to the human eye, but must be imaged with a CCD camera or by confocal microscopy.
