AAT Bioquest offers a comprehensive selection of CD antibody conjugates featuring alternative fluorescent dyes beyond our iFluor®, XFD, PE, APC, and PerCP series. This category includes mFluor™ dyes, a distinct small-molecule fluorophore series optimized for UV, violet, blue, and red laser excitation, as well as classic fluorophores such as FITC, TRITC, Pacific Blue, and Pacific Orange. These conjugates provide researchers with expanded options for building multicolor flow cytometry panels across diverse instrument configurations.
mFluor™ UV and Violet Dye-CD Antibody Conjugates
mFluor™ UV and Violet dyes are optimized for UV (355 nm) and violet (405 nm) laser excitation, enabling expanded multicolor panel options on cytometers equipped with these laser lines. These dyes fill spectral gaps in the UV and violet-excited range where few alternatives exist.
Spectral Properties
mFluor™ UV375: Ex/Em = 355/375 nm
mFluor™UV460: Ex/Em = 355/460 nm (spectrally comparable to BUV496)
mFluor™ Blue, Green, and Red Dye-CD Antibody Conjugates
mFluor™ Blue, Green, and Red dyes are optimized for blue (488 nm) and red (633/640 nm) laser excitation. These dyes provide bright alternatives to traditional fluorophores in the yellow-orange and far-red spectral regions.
Spectral Properties
mFluor™ Blue 570: Ex/Em = 488/570 nm
mFluor™ Green 620: Ex/Em = 488/620 nm
mFluor™ Red 700: Ex/Em = 633/700 nm (comparable to Alexa Fluor 700)
mFluor™ Red 780: Ex/Em = 633/780 nm (comparable to Alexa Fluor 780)
Classic Dye-CD Antibody Conjugates
Classic fluorescent dyes remain widely used in flow cytometry for legacy panel compatibility, established compensation settings, and cost-sensitive applications. FITC (fluorescein isothiocyanate) provides bright green fluorescence with 488 nm excitation, while TRITC (tetramethylrhodamine) offers orange emission with 532/561 nm excitation. Pacific Blue and Pacific Orange are violet laser-excited dyes that complement modern multicolor panel designs.
Spectral Properties
FITC: Ex/Em = 494/518 nm (488 nm laser, green emission)
