StarBright Dye Webinars

Build the Best Panels with the Brightest and Biggest Range of Dyes

StarBright Dyes are Bio-Rad’s range of exceptionally bright fluorescent dyes with narrow excitation and emission profiles. Fixable with minimal lot-to-lot variation, and no requirement for a special staining buffer, they can be used in any flow cytometry panel. Listen to the webinars below to discover the benefits of StarBright Dyes and how they could improve your flow cytometry experiments.

The Latest in Flow Cytometry – The Rise of the 488 nm Laser

This webinar will give you a brief understanding of the history of flow cytometry and how the 488 nm blue laser has played a crucial role in making flow cytometry a key application in research.

Although underused in recent years with the use of the optimal 561 nm laser to excite PE and PE tandems, trends of increasing panel size and the growing popularity of spectral flow cytometry have led to renewed interest in the 488 nm laser. Find out how the latest 488 nm excitable dyes are making this laser popular again.
