NovaFluor Yellow 690 dye

NovaFluor dyes, including NovaFluor Yellow 690 dye, are built using Phiton technology and are compatible with both spectral flow cytometry as well as traditional flow cytometry. NovaFluor dyes exhibit narrow emission spectra and minimal cross-laser excitation, reducing spectral spillover for better marker resolution. In addition, their unique spectral signatures can provide the opportunity to detect additional markers in flow cytometry panels by opening up previously unusable channels.

NovaFluor Yellow 690 dye has an emission spectrum that fits between the emission peaks of PE-Cyanine 5 and PE-Cyanine 7, potentially allowing detection of an additional marker in a complex multicolor panel. NovaFluor Yellow 690 and NovaFluor Yellow 700 dyes cannot be used together with conventional flow cytometry, but their distinct spectral signatures allow them to be successfully unmixed using a spectral flow cytometer. The macromolecule-based NovaFluor Yellow 690 dyes produce highly stable fluorescence, and stained samples retain their fluorescence intensity and spectral signature when stored at 4°C.

Benefits of NovaFluor Yellow 690 dye:

  • Narrow emission spectrum and minimal cross-laser excitation for better resolution
  • Bright fluorescence allows it to be paired with medium-to-low abundance antigens
  • Can allow the detection of an additional marker between PE-Cy5 and PE-Cy7 emissions
  • Produces highly stable fluorescence and is compatible with all buffers tested

Use NovaFluor dyes with CellBlox Monocyte and Macrophage Blocking Buffer to block non-specific binding of NovaFluor labels, PE and APC tandems observed with macrophages and monocytes.
