SiR-actin has fluorescence, cell permeability, and high specificity for F-actin. Sir-atin staining for endogenous F-actin does not require gene manipulation or overexpression. Its emission in far-red light minimizes phototoxicity and the self fluorescence of the sample. SiR-actin is compatible with GFP and/or m-Cherry fluorescent proteins. It can be imaged using standard Cy5 filters. SiR-actin can be used for wide field of view, confocal, SIM or STED imaging of living cells and tissues. The number of probes allows for 50 to 200 staining experiments* (* Based on the following conditions: 0.5 1ml staining solution/0.5 1um probe concentration for staining experiments. The number of staining experiments can be further increased by reducing the volume or probe concentration).

SiR Action cell imaging

The imaging of SiR action is best done using standard Cy5 settings. After labeling, live cells can be immediately imaged without the need for washing steps. Optionally, a simple washing step includes replacing the labeled solution with fresh culture medium without probes, which typically improves the signal-to-noise ratio. If time elapses for imaging, it is recommended to keep the probe concentration equal to or lower than 100 nM throughout the experiment to obtain a constant signal and avoid probe interference with actin dynamics (reducing cell proliferation). If cleaning cells

Before imaging, the staining will last for several hours.
