RESEARCH PRODUCTS/Basic fluorescent proteins:

TurboColors

- Superbright fluorescence
- Very fast maturation
- For research and commercial use

TurboColors are fluorescent proteins of different colors characterized by superbright fluorescence and superior fast maturation. These proteins are recommended for applications requiring fast appearance of bright fluorescence, including cell and organelle labeling or tracking promoter activity. Far-Red marker TurboFP635 is ideal for whole body imaging applications.
