• Fluorescent, orange probe for live cell imaging of the plasma membrane

PKmem 590 labels the plasma membrane in live cells with very high specificity. It has extremely low phototoxicity, due to the presence of the intramolecular triplet quencher cyclooctatetraene (COT) group, enabling long-term live cell imaging of the plasma membrane without damaging the cells

Key features

• Ab: 590 nm, Em: 606 nm – orange spectrum
• Suitable for long term imaging of plasma membranes in live cells
• Not suitable for fixed cell imaging
• Compatible with widefield, confocal, SIM or STED microscopy

The biological activity of CY-SC063 is assessed by the ability of the probe to efficiently label plasma membranes in live HeLa and KB cell culture.
