LysoView™ Dyes – No-Wash Lysosomal Stains for Live-Cell Imaging
LysoView™ dyes are advanced fluorescent probes designed for high-specificity lysosome staining in live cells, offering bright, low-background fluorescence without a wash step. Available in a full spectrum from blue to near-infrared, LysoView™ provides flexible options for confocal, SIM, STED and long-term live-cell imaging.
Perfect for researchers studying lysosomal biology, autophagy, cell stress, neurodegeneration and drug response.
Key Benefits
- No-wash lysosome staining for clean, high-contrast images
- Non-toxic formulation supports real-time and long-term imaging (24–72 h)
- Brighter and lower background compared to conventional lysosomal probes
- Validated for super-resolution: LysoView™ 488 (SIM), LysoView™ 650 (SIM and STED)
- pH-sensitive options (LysoView™ 540, LysoView™ 633) for enhanced specificity
- Wide colour range: blue, green, orange, red, far-red and unique NIR
- Flexible trial sizes for convenient assay testing
- Cost-efficient per assay with concentrated 1000X format
Product Features
- Targets lysosomes in live/intact cells
- Membrane-permeant fluorescence for immediate staining
- Compatible with super-resolution microscopy
- Photostable dyes (550, 594, 640, 650) ideal for prolonged imaging
- Storage at −10 to −35 °C, light-protected
- Available in 10 µL trials, 50 µL vials and lyophilised formats
Applications
- Lysosome localisation and morphology studies
