Considerations for the choice of secondary antibodies:

Laser wavelength

Suggested fluorophore

Advantages

Disadvantages

488 nm

Alexa Fluor 488, Cy2

Compatible with the 561 and 647 nm laser.

Highest autofluorescence.

Least preferred channel for imaging.

561 nm

Alexa Fluor 555, Alexa Fluor 568, Cy3, Cy3.5

Strong laser power; Compatible with 488 and 647 nm lasers.

Reasonable amount of autofluorescence.

647 nm

Alexa Fluor 647, Cy5

Very low autofluorescence; strong light penetration; strong laser power; Compatible with 561 and 488 nm lasers.

Most recommended channel for imaging.

730 nm

Alexa Fluor 750, Cy7

Almost no autofluorescence; strong light penetration.

Weak laser power

Note: The 730 nm laser is positioned in a separate beam combiner which might cause minor alignment variations in the light sheet angles. Pixel-based co-localization analysis should not be performed with this laser.
