StarBright Dyes for Flow Cytometry
StarBright Dyes are new, bright, fluorescent nanoparticles designed for flow cytometry. They have narrow excitation and emission properties to fit into any multicolor flow cytometry panel, and maximal brightness to detect rare populations and low-density antigens. Available conjugated to highly validated flow cytometry antibodies, they work in all buffers, provide consistent staining, can be premixed, and are suitable for con…

Bio-Rad has now launched ten StarBright Dyes, StarBright Blue 700, eight StarBright Violet Dyes, and the latest in the range StarBright UltraViolet 400, with many more due to be launched later this year and next.
Bright with Reduced Spillover
StarBright Dyes are generated from different monomers, modification of the polymerization process produces exacting excitation and emission characteristics with maximal brightness. The resulting brightness allows better resolution of rare populations and low-density antigens, while the optimized excitation and emission profiles allow flexibility to fit into any multicolor flow cytometry panel. StarBright Dyes are conjugated to our highly validated flow antibodies.
Easy Integration into Your Experiments
StarBright Dyes easily fit into your existing protocols and panels. They are compatible with most staining protocols, work in virtually all buffers with no loss in performance, and do not require any special buffers. They can be combined with other StarBright Dyes, organic fluorophores, protein-based fluorophores, and polymer dyes without the need for special staining protocols. Furthermore, they work in special polymer buffers without a drop in performance, so can fit into existing experiments.
