SPY650-FastAct™

SPY650-FastAct™ is a bright, far red, fluorogenic & non toxic F-actin stain based on our SPYTM dyes series. Its optimized structure allows to label F-actin in live cells with high specificity and low background. The unique and unmatched feature of SPY650-FastAct™ is its ability to label very fast actin dynamics. The probe does not require any genetic manipulation, transfection or overexpression of fluorescent proteins. SPY650-FastAct™ is based on our bright, photostable & far red SPY650 fluorophore which is far superior than fluorescent proteins. SPY650-FastAct™ enables multicolor imaging with SPY505, SPY555, SPY595, SPY700, GFP or m-cherry. SPY650-FastAct™ can be imaged with standard Cy5 filterset. It can be used for widefield, confocal, SIM or STED imaging in living cells and tissue. Contains 1 vial of SPY650-FastAct™ (lyophilized).
