Fluorescent Probes for Senile Plaques and Neurofibrillary Tangles

These are small molecular fluorescent compounds which combine with senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles.

You can easily and quickly stain senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles with the probes. Staining process complete in 10 minutes.

Applications

  • BF-168

    Senile plaques-selective fluorescent probe
    Staining image of senile plaques with fluorescent probe BF-168.

    BF-168 can stain senile plaques similarly to Aβ antibody.

  • BF-170

    Neurofibrillary tangles-selective fluorescent probe
    Staining image of neurofibrillary tangles with fluorescent probe BF-170

    BF-170 can stain neurofibrillary tangles similarly to anti-phosphorylated Tau antibody.

BF-187

Senile plaques & neurofibrillary tangles dual target probe
Staining image of senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles with fluorescent probe BF-187

Both senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles are stained.

BF-188

Senile plaques & neurofibrillary tangles dual target probe (bicolor)
Staining image of senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles with fluorescent probe BF-188

Senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles are stained in different colors.

Arrows : Senile plaques
Arrowheads : Neurofibrillary tangles
