Chromatwist develops a range of stable and heavy metal-free fluorescent materials, with applications as markers in the security and biotechnology sectors.
ChromaTwist is a leader in large Stokes shift organic fluorescent dyes which are excited across the UV and the blue leading to bright tuneable emission across the entire visible spectrum. Our patented innovative molecular technology platform coupled to our modular and scalable chemistry is allowing the development of our fluorophores to further push the boundaries of applications in the healthcare sector through their application in bio-sensing (e.g. flow cytometry) and bio-imaging (e.g. multiphoton microscopy).
ChromaTwist UV fluorescent probes for Flow Cytometry are powered by a patented technology platform allowing the development of new 355 nm (and 405 nm) excited probes that emit across the entire visible spectrum to further enhance multiplexing capabilities which will ultimately give users more choice.

"Fluorescent dyes absorb light at one wavelength and emit it at another. Such materials are widely used in consumer and commercial products in markets as diverse as lighting and displays, solar power generation, and in biochemistry and medical applications. A typical fluorescent dye will absorb short wavelength light such as ultraviolet (UV) and emit long...
