Vivid Colors fluorescent proteins represent the next-generation of enhanced green fluorescent proteins (EGFP) for use in fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry
Invitrogen has announced the availability of advanced vectors for Vivid Colors fluorescent proteins, which represent the next-generation of enhanced green fluorescent proteins (EGFP) for use in fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry.
Improving upon EGFP, Invitrogen's Vivid Colors, derived from the Aequorea victoris jellyfish, are not prone to aggregation, are enhanced for extreme fluorescence and are humanized for optimal mammalian expression.
Benefits of Vivid Colors vectors and associated products include extended reporter protein fluorescence - up to 24 hours - and multiple colours for co-visualisation applications.
