CF® Dye labeled dextrans could be used as a fluorescent fluid-phase markers to study cell permeability, endocytosis, or mechanisms of biomolecular delivery. The dextran is 150,000 MW, and contains a formaldehyde-fixable free-amine group; available with a selection of CF® Dyes.

This dextran is 40,000 MW, and contains a formaldehyde-fixable free-amine group; available with a selection of CF® dyes.

This dextran is 70,000 MW, and contains a formaldehyde-fixable free-amine group; available with a selection of CF® Dyes.

This dextran is 250,000 MW, and contains a formaldehyde-fixable free-amine group; available with a selection of CF® dyes.

A cell-permeable dye that exhibits enhanced fluorescence upon binding to amyloid fibrils, and has been used in histology and for protein characterization.

Congo Red has been used in microscopy for staining elastic fibers and bacteria. Amyloid protein, an abnormal protein aggregate associated with various pathologies, is commonly detected in tissue with Congo Red.

A fixable red fluorescent nerve terminal probe that is spectrally identical to SynaptoRed™ C2 (also called FM®4-64).

Far-red fluorescent probe with high affinity for Aβ plaques/aggregates, that can be used for fluorescent staining of brain sections and in vivo detection of Aβ_1-42 aggregates in small animals.

HM1-43 is a fixable, activity-dependent fluorescent nerve terminal probe.

Biotin ethylenediamine in free base form. White solid soluble in DMSO.

Biotin ethylenediamine iodoacetamide is readily coupled to thiols.

Biotin ethylenediamine, hydrobromide (N-(5-(6-((biotinoyl)amino)hexanoyl)amino)pentylmaleimide) is identical to Neurobiotin™, a useful anterograde and transneuronal tracer.

PathoGreen™ Histofluorescent Stain is an anionic green fluorescent dye functionally similar to Fluoro-Jade dyes. These dyes stain degenerating neurons and their processes after exposure to a variety of neurotoxic insults in brain sections and cultured neurons.

Hydroxystilbamidine (also called Fluoro-Gold™) has been used extensively as a retrograde tracer for neurons and also a histochemical stain.

SGC5 is a coumarin styryl dye that binds to membranes in a manner similar to the FM® dyes. It becomes highly fluorescent upon insertion into lipid bilayers.

SGC3 is a coumarin styryl dye that binds to membranes in a manner similar to the FM® dyes. It becomes highly fluorescent upon insertion into lipid bilayers.
