TetraSpeck™ Fluorescent Microspheres Size Kit (mounted on slide)

This TetraSpeck Fluorescent Microspheres Size Kit contains one microscope slide, with six viewing regions. Each of five viewing regions contains microspheres of one size – 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0 or 4.0 μm. The remaining region contains a mixture of all five bead sizes. Every microsphere is stained with four different fluorescent dyes [365⁄430 nm (blue), 505⁄515 nm (green), 560⁄580 nm (orange), and 660⁄680 nm (dark red)] that have well-separated excitation and emission peaks. Invitrogen’s TetraSpeck™ fluorescent microspheres aid in the calibration of wide field, TIRF and confocal fluorescence microscopes,especially for multicolor applications like co-localization analysis and the derivation of point spread functions critical for deconvolution.
