SureLight® RPE


Consistency and Reliability at the Best Price

R-phycoerythrin (RPE), the brightest fluorophore used in biomedical research, is a group of red photosynthetic pigments found primarily in red algae. RPE is the most efficient light-harvesting fluorophore in nature.

Columbia Biosciences’ SureLight® RPE has comparable specifications to the top selling RPE products and is therefore easily interchangeable with these products. We guarantee a consistent and stable supply and, due to the efficiencies in our production process, offer highly competitive pricing.

For those companies looking to qualify SureLight RPE, we offer free qualification samples and our expert scientists are on hand to work with your R&D team to make the transition seamless.
