H2DCFDA (DCFH-DA) belongs to the class of green fluorescent dyes and is a probe for the detection of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) (Ex Em=488 525 nm) with cell membrane permeability.
DAPI Dihydrochloride (FxCycle Violet) is a cell-permeable fluorescent probe by binding in the minor grove of A-T rich sequences of DNA, used to stain DNA and chromosomes, with a preference for adenine and thymine rich DNA.
Hoechst 33342 (bisBenzimide H 33342), is a Benzimidazole fluorescent dye and a Cell permeable fluorescent DNA stain; binds minor groove of AT-rich regions. HOE 33342 trihydrochlorde is used to quantify DNA in viable cells.
ER-Tracker Green (ERTG) is a cell permeable live cell stain for live cell imaging.ER-Tracker Green has an excitation wavelength of 504 nm and an emission wavelength of 511 nm.
BODIPY FL prazosin is a fluorescent α1-adrenergic antagonist with binding affinities of Ki: 14.5 nM for α1a-AR and Ki: 43.3 nM for α1b-AR, used to study subcellular localization differences in α1-adrenoceptor subtypes.
DiI (DiIC18(3)) is a lipophilic membrane dye commonly used as a long-term tracer for neurons and other cells. DiI fluoresces very weakly before it enters the cell membrane, and only after it enters the cell membrane can it be excited to emit a strong orange-red fluorescence (λex=549 nm, λem=565 nm).
MQAE, a fluorescent chloride ion indicator, is more sensitive and selective than 36Cl and microelectrode-based methods for chloride measurement in cells. MQAE is quenched via collision with chloride.
6-NBDG, a fluorescent glucose analogue, can be used as a fluorescent probe.6-NBDG can be used for monitoring glucose transport and uptake. 6-NBDG can be used as for detecting macrophage-rich atherosclerotic plaques.
PE 154 is a potent fluorescent inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) with IC50s of 280 pM and 16 nM respectively. PE 154 is commonly used to label β-amyloid plaques in histochemical analysis.
5(6)-FAM SE (5(6)-Carboxyfluorescein N-hydroxysuccinimide ester) is an amine-reactive green fluorescent dye. 5(6)-FAM SE is widely used for labeling proteins or other molecules that contain a primary or secondary aliphatic amine.
2',7'-Dichlorofluorescein diacetate (Diacetyldichlorofluorescein), a cell-permeable fluorogenic probe, is useful for the detection of nitric oxide (NO) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) and for the determination of the degree of overall oxidative stress.
Monochlorobimane (mBBr) is a fluorescent dye with a λex value of 380 nm and a λem value of 470 nm.Monochlorobimane can be used to measure glutathione (GSH) in cells.
1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran (DPBF) is a fluorescent probe. It possesses a highly specific reactivity towards singlet oxygen forming an endoperoxide which decomposes to give 1,2-dibenzoylbenzene. 1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran can detect the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).
