CF® Dyes: Clearer Fluorescent Results

Fluorescent dyes are nearly ubiquitous in the life sciences, with researchers using them for numerous applications such as labeling cells to study their behaviors, quantifying and characterizing cell activity during systemic responses, investigating protein-protein interactions, tracking signaling pathways, and understanding tissue structure and composition. Scientists constantly look for improvements—whether that means modifying existing technology or developing new ones—to accommodate changing research needs. Therefore, developments in dye technology lead scientists to incorporate fluorescence into established techniques such as western blotting, fluorescence microscopy, and flow cytometry.
