Description
AFDye 680R is a bright and photostable near IR dye that emits fluorescence at about 700 nm in the borderline spectral region between far-red and near-IR. AFDye 680R dye is water soluble and pH-insensitive from pH 4 to pH 10. AFDye 660R is a rhodamine-based dye, and like rhodamine dyes in general, it is very bright and exceptionally photostable (Figure 1). The superior photostability and excellent brightness of MB 680R makes this dye an ideal for confocal microscopy, single molecule imaging and other applications that demand both brightness and photostability.
