StarBright UltraViolet Dyes:
8 Ways to Improve Your Flow Cytometry


Mike Blundell PhD

Tuesday 11:00 GMT | 12:00 CET | 16:30 IST

In the last two years, Bio-Rad has launched nine StarBright Violet and seven StarBright UltraViolet Dyes – a unique set of proprietary, fluorescent nanoparticles specially designed for flow cytometry.

In this webinar, we will demonstrate how the exceptional brightness of StarBright UltraViolet Dyes, along with their narrow excitation and emission profiles, stability, and compatibility can help overcome common challenges when building flow cytometry panels.

You will discover how easily they can fit into existing panels and be used in conventional and spectral flow cytometry experiments with high-parameter examples.


This webinar is recommended for both novices and researchers with some experience in flow cytometry.
