Any recommendations for Cy5.5 or Cy7 nuclear stains? We have tried amine-reactive dyes but these cause autofluorescence, so we are looking for dyes similar to TOPRO-5, but this is no longer available from Thermo.

Hi Ioannis, have you thought about DRAQ5, DRAQ7?

DNA: Zombie NIR from BioLegend, excites ok at ~640nm according to
https://searchlight.semrock.com

RNA (since nucle have RNA): various SYTO etc dyes from ThermoFisher.

Your new favorite nuclear protein: could use an antibody with some NIR
fluorophore (Alexa Fluor 750, Brilliant Violet 750) to detect any of:
histone, Lamin (A/C or B), nuclear pore complex (NPC), etc. NPC provide
nice punctate spots (microscopy) or standard test targets (nanoscopy),
avoids massive blob of DNA, RNA or histone, so simpler for compartment
segmentation. Going for NPC could detect using the anti-TPR and
fluorescent 2ndary nanobody used in Pleiner 2018 JCB
(https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201709115 ... 2ndary nanobodies now
available from nano-tag.com. chromotek.com or ThermoFisher).

A warning that we've had focus problems with IR probes for non-multiphoton with lenses that are not chromatically corrected out this far into red.

Hi Ioannis,

have you tried the SYTO and SYTOX dyes (also form Thermo).
I was very happy with the result - I used them to label in vivo and did
intravital imaging with a multiphoton microscope to visualize Netosis in
vivo.

Best wishes,
Angela

Ioannis,

sounds like SiR-DNA or SiR700-DNA might be working for you. Worked nice
in our hands. Spirochrome also has some new SPY dyes that might do the
trick, but we have no experience yet with those.
