Hello,
Just wondering if anyone has ever come across (or used) a Cy7 or similar
TSA dye probe? I checked a few of the vendors that I could think of
(Molecular Probes/Invitrogen/Fisher, Perkin Elmer) but none of them had any
probes in that range.

The goal is to do automated staining of FFPE tissues using Cy5 and another
NIR probe. The dyes need to be TSA conjugates. I do not want to use Cy5.5
due to spectral overlap. Also, dyes in the visible region are no beuno due
to too much autofluorescence.

Any help/suggestion is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
