Fluorescence & Labeling

Chromeo™ Dyes

effective fluorescent labels for bioanalysis

 

Chromeo™ Dyes – Chromeo 488, Chromeo 494, Chromeo 546 and Chromeo 642 – exhibit superior luminescence properties, broad Stokes shifts, stability towards photobleaching and pH, and low cell toxicity. In addition, they are compatible with most excitation sources including diode lasers, LEDs, tungsten lamps and xenon arc lamps. For your labeling convenience, Chromeo Dyes are offered in a variety of chemistries.
