Infrared-Excited Viability Dye for Discriminating Dead Cells in Flow Cytometry
Fixable Viability Dye eFluor™ 780 is a high-performance viability dye designed for irreversible labeling of dead cells prior to fixation, permeabilization, or intracellular staining. Unlike non-fixable dyes like 7-AAD or propidium iodide, this dye allows for robust and consistent exclusion of dead cells in multi-color flow cytometry, including protocols that involve intracellular antigen detection.
With red laser (633 nm) excitation and peak emission at 780 nm, Fixable Viability Dye eFluor™ 780 is ideal for use in advanced multicolor panels, offering minimal spectral spillover and compatibility with a wide range of fluorochromes.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Fixable and Irreversible
Enables dead cell exclusion after fixation/permeabilization, making it ideal for intracellular staining workflows. -
Infrared Fluorescence
Excited by the 633 nm red laser, with emission at 780 nm—compatible with detectors such as APC-eFluor™ 780 or APC-Alexa Fluor™ 750. -
Minimal Spectral Overlap
Minimal compensation required; <5% spillover into PE-Cy7; optimized for multiparameter flow cytometry. -
Pre-Diluted and Convenient
Supplied in anhydrous DMSO as a ready-to-use solution. Stable for up to 20 freeze-thaw cycles. -
Multi-Species Compatibility
Suitable for use with cells from all species, including human and mouse models.
Applications
- Viability discrimination in flow cytometry
- Dead cell exclusion in fixed and permeabilized samples
- T cell, B cell, and other immune profiling workflows
- Multicolor intracellular staining panels
- Sample quality control in cytometric assays
