About Brilliant Violet 570

Brilliant™ Violet 570 (BV570) is a yellow-emitting tandem fluorophore that can be excited by the 405 nm Violet laser and collected using a 585/42 bandpass filter. BV570 has an excitation peak at 405 nm and an emission peak at 570 nm, and is spectrally similar to StarBright 570 (Bio-Rad). This dye is part of the Brilliant™ Violet dye line of fluorescent polymers. Brilliant™ Violet 421 polymer is employed as the donor molecule in a series of tandem dyes with acceptor molecules emitting at various points across the visible light spectrum. The Brilliant™ Violet dyes are a superior alternative to QDot nanocrystals and similar to SuperNova dye from Beckman Coulter and StarBright dyes from Bio-Rad.
