MemGlow 560 - Fluorogenic Plasma Membrane probe ex 555 em 570 250-1500 slides (MEMBRIGHT Family Probe)

AT

The MemGlow product line consists of bright & non toxic live cell membrane probes. Originally developed as the MEMBRIGHT probes^1-3 MemGlow fluorogenic probes exhibit ideal microscopy characteristics including high specificity, low background, and simple application. MemGlow 560 has been validated with multiple microscopy techniques including epifluorescent (widefield), confocal, 2-photon, and TIRF¹. MemGlow has been confirmed to work in fixed cells, fixed tissue, live cells, and other phospholipid membranes such as extracellular vesicles including exosomes^1-3. Features and advantages of MemGlow probes: Bright and fluorogenic Simple staining protocol and low working concentration Compatible with live and fixed cell staining (see important technical notes inAbout Tab) Compatible with ex vivo and fixed tissue staining Non-toxic probes permit long-term imaging and re-imaging of live cells Efficient labeling of filopodia and nanotubes at nanomolar concentrations No dye quenching steps required Do not alter sample biology Utilize cyanine or BODIPY dyes with zwitterionic membrane anchor groups Superior to many existing plasma membrane dyes

Turn-on mechanism of MemGlow probes. MemGlow probes are self-quenched nanoparticles until integration with the plasma membrane enables their excitation. Cytoskeleton's new MemGlow probes, part of the MemBright family, was used to visualize the plasma membrane of live KB cells with a laser scanning confocal microscope set to 5% laser power (488 nm) for 340 frames with 2 scans per frame and continuous illumination for 15 minutes.
