New product coming soon: PKmito ORANGE FX for fixed cell mitochondrial imaging

A new member of the PKmito™ probes family will be available soon! PKmito ORANGE FX is tailored for fixed cells and tissue imaging of mitochondria. The probe was developed by the team led by Zhixing Chen at Peking university and published in PNAS: An aldehyde-crosslinking mitochondrial probe for STED imaging in fixed cells The outstanding STED […]

HaloX™ Exchangeable Halotag Ligands Technology Launch 

Spirochrome & Abberior teamed up to bring the HaloX™ exchangeable halotag™ ligands technology1) available to the imaging community. Unlike regular Chloroalkane ligands, that react covalently with Halotag™ protein, HaloX™ ligands bind reversibly to Halotag™ protein. This unique feature allows, in addition to regular confocal microscopy, to perform STED, PAINT or MINFLUX superresolution imaging.   During […]

We launch SPyRho 555, a new fluorogenic dye for live cell RNA imaging.

SpyRho 555 is a fluorogenic dye ligand for the RNA aptamer RhoBAST developed by the lab of Murat Sunbul in Heidelberg University1). SpyRho 555 is a rhodamine dye that is cell permeable, highly fluorogenic and photostable. With its high affinity and fast on/off binding kinetics to its cognate aptamer RhoBAST, it allows overcoming the main issues […]

They have been developed by the lab Zhixing Chen from Peking University1,2) Your browser does not support the video tag. Live HeLa cells […]

SPY700-FastAct™ is available

After introducing SPY650-FastAct™ and SPY555-FastAct™, we are proud to announce that SPY700-FastAct™ is available, expanding our FastAct™ product line further into the far-red. Our FastAct™ technology is a unique fluorescent live cell actin imaging tool. SPY700-FastAct™ labels very dynamic actin filaments as well as the more static ones. In conjugation with our SPY700 fluorophore it […]

PKmito™ probes for live cell mitochondria imaging will be available in January 2023 through our distributors network.

PKmito™ probes are bright and photostable fluorescent probes for gentle imaging of mitochondria in live cells. They have been developed and published by the lab Zhixing Chen from Peking University1,2) PKmito™ probes feature a unique technology: They consist of cyanine derivatives bearing intramolecular cyclooctatetraene (COT) substituents.  The presence of intramolecular COT substituents very efficiently reduces […]
