LIVE 510

LIVE 510 (Ex-Max 498 nm/Em-Max 529 nm)

abberior LIVE 510 is a dye designed for live-cell STED and confocal microscopy. Its molecular structure renders the dye strongly fluorogenic and facilitates its ability to overcome cell membranes. It can be optimally excited between 485 - 500 nm. For STED, a depletion wavelength between 590 - 610 nm is recommended. Conjugates of abberior LIVE 510 enable live-cell labeling of proteins and other biological structures e.g. actin or tubulin cytoskeleton.
