• Fluorescent, orange stain for optimized for mitochondria staining in formaldehyde (FA) or glutaraldehyde (GA) fixed cells using super-resolution microscopy
• Image mitochondrial cristae structure using STED microscopy

PKmito Orange FX (PKMO FX) labels mitochondria in formaldehyde (FA) or glutaraldehyde (GA) fixed cells with very high specificity. It accumulates in the mitochondrial inner membrane (IM) and is retained nearly quantitatively after aldehyde fixation of stained cells. It is highly suited to image mitochondrial cristae structure by STED super resolution microscopy.

Key features

• Ab: 584 nm, Em: 604 nm – orange spectrum
• Suitable for imaging mitochondria in GA or FA fixed cells
• Compatible with widefield, confocal, SIM or STED microscopy

The biological activity of CY-SC054 is assessed by the ability of the probe to efficiently detect mitochondria in live and GA fixed HeLa cell culture.
