Abberior STAR488 is the latest development for STED microscopy. It is a very bright green fluorescent dye that can be very effectively excited at the prominent 488 nm laser line. Abberior STAR 488 can substitute dyes like Oregon Green® 488, ATTO® 488 or Alexa Fluor® 488.
STED: The dye can most effectively be depleted in STED microscopy at 585-605 nm.
Applications
Below is animage taken with Abberior STAR488 in combination with Abberior STAR440SX in the Leica STED CW system as a reference.
The image below is taken with an Abberior STAR488 labeling and via using the Abberior EASYDOnut phaseplate.
Abberior STAR 488 is the dye of choice for excitation at 488 nm. Even more, the dye is particularly designed and tested for 2-color STED microscopy in combination with our STAR 440SX dye using a 590nm laser. The dye has been very successfully tested in the Leica 2-color TCS STED CW microscope.
