The new IRDye 680LT dye is highly soluble in water and is significantly brighter and more photostable than many other 700 nm near-infrared dyes. The spectral characteristics of IRDye 680LT are well suited for use on LI-COR imaging instruments with absorbance and emission maxima in aqueous solution and methanol of 676 and 693 nm, respectively. Features of the IRDye 680LT dye: Spectrally matched to LI-COR® imaging systems Optimized for protein detection applications, including Quantitative Westerns and In-Cell Western™ assays As bright as Alexa Fluor® 680 Excellent photostability for fluorescence microscopy Low background at near-infrared wavelengths enables higher signal-to-noise ratios
