NovaFluor Red 800
NF-R800
The NovaFluor family of fluorescent polymers from Thermo Fisher Scientific are a novel reagent for traditional and spectral flow cytometry. These fluorophores are comprised of a DNA backbone polymer integrated with fluorophore substituted nucleosides to create a potent donor molecule. Tandem fluophores with long Stokes' Shift enable brighter, spectrally discrete, tunable fluorescent polymers as an alternative to traditional simple organic structures, protein-based fluorophores as well as the Horizon Brilliant™ family of fluorescent polymers from BD. NovaFluor Red 800 has an excitation peak at 637 nm and an emission peak at 800 nm.
