General description
Abberior STAR RED is an already well known dye named also KK114 in literature (a scientific web search shows more than 60 publications, a selection is listed below). Please note the minimal background signal due to negligible unspecific binding. A key feature of the dye is its comparably long lifetime of ~3.5ns. The dye works exceptionally well with the Abberior Instruments STED microscope as well as with the Leica STED microscope.
Abberior STAR RED can substitute Atto™ 647N, AlexaFluor 647, or Cy®5. It can be excited with diode lasers (635 nm, 650 nm) or with the 647 nm line of a Krypton laser. For STED, a depletion wavelength around 750 nm is recommended. Please see reference [2] for detailed characteristics.
Best results are obtained with freshly prepared samples.

Application
Abberior™ STAR RED labelled cholesterol analogs were used for STED-FCS (stimulated emission depletion - fluorescence correlation spectroscopy) based measurements of membrane diffusion dynamics. Anti-mouse secondary antibody coupled to Abberior™ STAR RED has been used for STED microscopy imaging in Vero cell line.
Suitability
Designed and tested for fluorescent super-resolution microscopy

Despite the need for isotropic optical resolution in a growing number of applications, the majority of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy setups still do not attain an axial resolution comparable to that in the lateral dimensions. Three-dimensional (3D) nanoscopy implementations that employ

The voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC, also known as mitochondrial porin) is the major transport channel mediating the transport of metabolites, including ATP, across the mitochondrial outer membrane. Biochemical data demonstrate the binding of the cytosolic protein hexokinase-I to VDAC, facilitating

Mammalian mtDNA is packaged in DNA-protein complexes denoted mitochondrial nucleoids. The organization of the nucleoid is a very fundamental question in mitochondrial biology and will determine tissue segregation and transmission of mtDNA. We have used a combination of stimulated emission
