Invitrogen™ eBioscience™ Streptavidin Super Bright 436 Conjugate

Description

Super Bright dyes are polymer-based fluorophores that are excited by the violet laser (405 nm) and emit fluorescence at the wavelength indicated in their name. They are optimized for use in flow cytometry and allow for use of additional channels with violet excitation. Super Bright dyes are fully compatible with other commonly used fluorescent molecules, eBioscience buffers and fixatives, viability stains, and reagents.

Super Bright 436 can be excited with the violet laser line (405 nm) and emits at 436 nm. We recommend using a 450/50 bandpass filter or equivalent. Please make sure that your instrument is capable of detecting this fluorochrome.

Applications tested
Streptavidin Super Bright 436 Conjugate has been tested by flow cytometric analysis to detect biotinylated primary antibodies. The amount of this conjugate that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL is less than or equal to 0.125 μg. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10⁵ to 10⁸ cells/test. It is recommended that the streptavidin be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.

When using two or more Super Bright dye-conjugated antibodies in a staining panel, it is recommended to use Super Bright Complete Staining Buffer to minimize any non-specific polymer interactions. Please refer to the datasheet for Super Bright Complete Staining Buffer for more information.
