The BacLight Green (Cat. no. B-35000) and BacLight Red (Cat. no. B-35001) bacterial stains are fluorescent labeling reagents for detecting and monitoring bacteria. These two dyes are not nucleic acid stains. Bacteria stained with the BacLight Green and BacLight Red bacterial stains exhibit bright green and red fluorescence (absorption/emission ∼480/516 and ∼581/644 nm, respectively), and can be resolved using the appropriate flow cytometric channels or fluorescence microscopy filters. The BacLight bacterial stains are compatible with formaldehyde or alcohol fixation methods.
