NIR-Red Dead Cell-1 Dye

NIR-Red Dead Cell-1 Dye is a DNA-binding fluorescent dye for non-living cells (Ex/Em=515 nm/531 nm) . NIR-Red Dead Cell-1 Dye can intercalate into base pairs of double-stranded DNA and produce stronger fluorescence. NIR-Red Dead Cell-1 Dye is suitable for necrotic cells or late apoptotic cells with damaged cell membranes, showing green fluorescence under fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry. NIR-Red Dead Cell-1 Dye can be used to distinguish live cells from dead cells and distinguish cell membrane integrity. NIR-Red Dead Cell-1 Dye can be attached to the surface of Feraheme (FH) nanoparticles (NPs) to obtain fluorescent dye-functionalized NPs for drug delivery studies[1][2][3].
