Bioimaging Molecular Probes

Stream Bio’s Conjugated Polymer Nanoparticle products are a new generation of novel molecular bioimaging probes for diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

Stream Bio’s Conjugated Polymer Nanoparticle (CPN) products are a new generation of novel molecular bioimaging probes for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. The highly fluorescent, non- toxic nanoparticles come in emission wavelengths 475, 510, 550, and 680 nm, covering colors blue, green, yellow, and red.

The products can be used in molecular imaging and R&D applications, including flow cytometry, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, fluorescent in situ hybridization, western blotting fluorescence resonance energy transfer, intensity-hue-saturation, and lateral flow assays.

The CPNs provide significant photostability and sensitivity (brightness) with highly specific targeting and magnetic cell-purification capability, while remaining compliant with existing lab protocols, the company reports.
