Novel PE and APC tandems: Additional near-infrared fluorochromes for use in spectral flow cytometry.

ABSTRACT: Recent advances in flow cytometry instrumentation and fluorochrome chemistries have greatly increased fluorescent conjugated antibody combinations that can be used reliably and easily in routine experiments. The Cytek Aurora flow cytometer was first released with three excitation lasers (405, 488, and 640 nm) and incorporated the latest Avalanche Photodiode (APD) technology, demonstrating significant improvement in sensitivity for fluorescent emission signals longer than 800 nm. However, there are limited commercially available fluorochromes capable of excitation with peak emission signals beyond 800 nm. To address this gap, we engineered six new fluorochromes: PE-750, PE-800, PE-830 for the 488 nm laser and APC-750, APC-800, APC-830 for the 640 nm laser. Utilizing the principal of fluores
