Dyes and Fluorophores 

The styryl dye RH795 is a fast-responding potentiometric probe that is primarily used for functional imaging of neurons. The dye is spectrally similar to RH414 (#61016), but exhibits different physiological effects during staining. For example, RH414 causes arterial constriction during cortex staining, while RH795 does not (see references 1,2). The excitation/emission data below are for the dye in methanol. In cell membranes, the spectra of styryl dyes are typically blue-shifted by as much as 20 nm for absorption or excitation and 80 nm for emission.
