IVISbrite Colo205 Red F-luc Bioluminescent Tumor Cell line

• Organism: Human
• Tissue: Colon
• Tissue: Colorectal adenocarcinoma
• Optical Reporter: Red F-luc

Colo205 Red F-luc is a mixture of adherent and suspension cells that will normally appear in culture as rounded and loosely attached or fully suspended cells.

By emitting intensified, longer wavelength light that is significantly brighter than other firefly luciferases, our bioluminescent oncology cell lines allow you to visualize and monitor the growth of deep tissue tumors in vivo.

After the cells are injected into an appropriate mouse model, the optimized Red F-luc luciferase enables more sensitive in vivo optical detection with less tissue attenuation so you can detect tumor development earlier, and monitor tumor growth and metastases in both subcutaneous and orthotopic models.
