DescriptionBioTracker™ Red Exosome Membrane Labeling Kit
OverviewThe BioTracker™ exosome membrane labeling probe series can be used for staining the membrane of purified exosomes, which in turn permits imaging of labeled exosomes taken up by cells.

SCT266 does not cause aggregation and has little effect on the attributes of exosomes, permitting accurate observation of exosome dynamics.

BioTracker™ exosome membrane labeling probes *eliminate* issues with existing labeling dyes, including:
1) self-particle formation
2) an increase in size of the exosomes after labeling

Three different fluorescence colors---green (SCT265), red (SCT266), and far red (SCT267)--- enable application in multiplexing experiments, such as observation of exosome localization in organelles.

Add 10 uL DMSO to tube of green, red, or far red exosome membrane dye to create stock solution.

Background InformationExosomes are a form of extracellular vesicle (EV), which have been shown to be involved in intercellular communication. To investigate such communication, labeling techniques based on fluorescent dyes are essential. Fluorescent dyes that label the cell membrane are commonly used for exosome labeling because the lipid bilayer in exosomes is an optimal labeling target.
