Cellufluor (Synonyms: Tinopal 5BMS, Phorwite AR, Paper White BP, Kayaphor FB, Fluorescent Brightener 28, Ca...)

Catalog No. T20231 Copy Product Info
Purity: 98.59%
🥰Excellent
Cellufluor is a fluorescent whitening agent widely used in the textile and paper industries, as well as in biological research. It specifically binds to polysaccharides containing β-1,3 and β-1,4 glycosidic bonds (such as cellulose and chitin), producing strong fluorescence when excited by ultraviolet or short-wavelength visible light, and is used to visualize cell wall structures. In microbiology, Cellufluor enables rapid and sensitive detection of chitin and cellulose in the cell walls of fungi, algae, and plants. Due to the absence of cell wall polysaccharide structures, Cellufluor typically does not stain mammalian cells.

Due to the absence of cell wall polysaccharide structures, Cellufluor typically does not stain mammalian cells.
In vitro
Cellufluor (8.1% concentration) can stain the nuclei in pupal wing epithelial tissue with blue fluorescence [2].
Cellufluor-coated Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles exhibit a strong maximum fluorescence absorption peak (λmax) at 435 nm [4].

In Vivo Formulation Calculator (Clear solution)

Please enter your animal experiment information in the following box and click Calculate to obtain the stock solution preparation method and in vivo formula preparation method:
TargetMol | Animal experiments For example, if the intended dosage is 10 mg/kg for animals weighing 20 g , with a dosing volume of 100 μL per animal, TargetMol | Animal experiments and a total of 10 animals are to be administered, using a formulation of TargetMol | reagent 10% DMSO+ 40% PEG300+ 5% Tween 80+ 45% Saline/PBS/ddH2O , the resulting working solution concentration would be 2 mg/mL.
Stock Solution Preparation:

Dissolve 2 mg of the compound in 100 μL DMSOTargetMol | reagent to obtain a stock solution at a concentration of 20 mg/mL . If the required concentration exceeds the compound's known solubility, please contact us for technical support before proceeding.

Preparation of the In Vivo Formulation:

1) Add 100 μL of the DMSOTargetMol | reagent stock solution to 400 μL PEG300TargetMol | reagent and mix thoroughly until the solution becomes clear.

2) Add 50 μL Tween 80 and mix well until fully clarified.

3) Add 450 μL Saline,PBS or ddH2OTargetMol | reagent and mix thoroughly until a homogeneous solution is obtained.

This example is provided solely to demonstrate the use of the In Vivo Formulation Calculator and does not constitute a recommended formulation for any specific compound. Please select an appropriate dissolution and formulation strategy based on your experimental model and route of administration.
All co-solvents required for this protocol, includingDMSO, PEG300/PEG400, Tween 80, SBE-β-CD, and Corn oil, are available for purchase on the TargetMol website.
