MemGlow 590: Fluorogenic Membrane Probe

The MemGlow™ product line consists of bright & non toxic live cell membrane probes. Originally developed as the MEMBRIGHT™ probes, MemGlow™ fluorogenic probes exhibit ideal microscopy characteristics including high specificity, low background, and simple application. MemGlow™ 590 has been validated with multiple microscopy techniques including epifluorescent (widefield), confocal, 2-photon, and TIRF. MemGlow™  has been confirmed to work in fixed cells (see technical notes), fixed tissue, live cells, and other phospholipid membranes such as extracellular vesicles including exosomes. Features and advantages of MemGlow™ probes: Bright and fluorogenic, Simple staining protocol and low working concentration, Non-toxic probes permit long-term imaging and re-imaging of live cells, Efficient labeling of filopodia and nanotubes at nanomolar concentrations, No dye quenching steps required, Do not alter sample biology, Utilize cyanine or BODIPY dyes with zwitterionic membrane anchor groups, and is Superior to many existing plasma membrane dyes.
