In Vivo Imaging
Near-infrared (NIR) dyes offer important advantages over traditional visible dyes. Because cellular or tissue components produce minimal autofluorescence in the near-IR region, near-IR imaging is highly specific and sensitive. NIR emission also has strong tissue penetration, allowing small animal in vivo fluorescence imaging.
Biotium’s NIR CF® Dyes are the brightest and most photostable among spectrally similar dyes. They are also highly water soluble for excellent conjugate specificity (learn more about NIR CF® Dyes). See our NIR CF® Dye Annexin Conjugates and VivoBrite™ Antibody Labeling Kits for in vivo imaging. We also offer CellBrite™ NIR dyes and DiR, which are non-toxic, stable cellular membrane dyes useful for in vivo cell tracking studies.
Annexin V Near IR CF® Dye Conjugates
Annexin V fluorescent conjugates can be used to detect apoptotic cells. Annexin V is available labeled with our superior near-IR fluorescent dyes.

DiR
DiR is a lipophilic, near-infrared fluorescent cyanine dye. The dye is useful for labeling cytoplasmic membranes and has been used for near-infrared in vivo imaging. Note: The 25 mg size of DiR will no longer be offered after January 1, 2020. DiR will be available in 10 mg and 5 x 1 mg sizes.
