4methylumbelliferyl βdgalactopyranoside6sulfate (sodium salt)

4-Methylumbelliferyl β-D-Galactopyranoside-6-sulfate (sodium salt) (4-MU-Gal-6S) is a fluorogenic substrate used to quantify N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulphatase (GALNS) activity. 4-MU-Gal-6S is cleaved by GALNS to release the fluorescent moiety 4-MU. 4-MU fluorescence is pH-dependent with excitation maxima of 320 and 360 nm at low (1.97-6.72) and high (7.12-10.3) pH, respectively, and an emission maximum ranging from 445 to 455 nM, increasing as pH decreases. It has been used to detect Morquio disease type A, a lysosomal storage disorder in which GALNS is deficient. 4-MU-Gal-6S can be used to assess GALNS activity in a very small blood volume to determine the extent of deficiency.

6-Ethyl-7-hydroxy-4-methylchromen-2-one is a fluorescent dye.

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.

7-(2,4-Dinitrophenoxy)-4-methyl-2H-chromen-2-one (Compound 1) serves as a fluorescent probe for detecting hydrogen sulfide (H2S). It is characterized by a low detection limit (4×10^-6 mol L), high selectivity, and great sensitivity. At a concentration of 150 µg mL, it exhibits negligible cytotoxicity. The excitation wavelength is 331 nm, while in DMSO solvent, it emits at approximately 385 nm; upon addition of HS-, the fluorescence intensity significantly increases around 392 nm.

bis-ANS is a high-affinity non-covalent extrinsic fluorescent dye used to analyze protein conformation.[1] Its predominant interaction with proteins is through its hydrophobic phenyl and naphthyl rings.[2] bis-ANS has an excitation maxima of 390 nm.[3] It has an emission maximum of 523 nm when free in solution but undergoes a blue shift with an increase in fluorescence intensity when bound to protein; for example, when bound to intestinal fatty acid binding protein (FAPB2) it has emission maxima of 484-496 nm. bis-ANS has been used to label mechanically damaged neurons in acute brain slices.4 It also potently inhibits microtubule assembly.[5],[6]

Ac-ANW-AMC is a fluorogenic substrate for the β5i LMP7 subunit of the 20S immunoproteasome. [1] Upon cleavage, 7-amino-4-methylcoumarin (AMC) is released, and its fluorescence quantifies the activity of the β5i LMP7 subunit. AMC displays excitation emission maxima of 340-360 440-460 nm, respectively.

Biotin-11-dUTP [tetra(triethylammonium) salt] [(2S,3S,4R,5R,6R)-5-(2,4-dioxopyrimidin-1-yl)-4-hydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)-2-[(3aR,4S,6R,6aS)-2-oxohexahydro-2H-thieno[3,4-d]imidazol-4-yl]-tetrahydro-2H-furo[3,2-d][1,3,2]dioxaphosphorin-3-yl]phosphonate] is used as a fluorescent substitute for dTTP.

Fluorescein-6-isothiocyanate is a useful organic compound for research related to life sciences. The catalog number is T64942 and the CAS number is 18861-78-4.

6-(4-Acetamido-1,8-naphthalamido)hexanoic acid is a versatile dye utilized across various domains. Employed extensively in biological experiments, this dye serves to analyze and monitor cell structures, differentiate cell types, and assess cellular functions. It aids in the detection of biomolecules, facilitates tissue pathology studies, and tracks microorganisms. Beyond basic research, its applications extend to clinical diagnostics and other fields including textile dyeing, functional textile processing, food coloring, and dye-sensitized solar cells.

DAPI (dilactate), a blue fluorescent dye, primarily targets and binds to AT clusters within the minor groove of dsDNA, significantly enhancing fluorescence by about 20-fold upon binding. It is particularly effective in staining the nucleus, allowing for clear identification of the cell cycle phases, while it does not stain the cytoplasm. The dilactate form of DAPI exhibits greater water solubility compared to its dihydrochloride counterpart. [1] [2]

NBD-X acid, a fluorescent probe for studying fatty acids and sterols, offers higher labeling yields for biopolymers than NBD chloride and fluoride. Its fluorescence spectrum is highly sensitive to environmental changes, with fluorescence intensity significantly decreased in aqueous solutions [1].

1) Non-toxicity: The unique oiliness and high molecular weight characteristics of CelRed prevent it from penetrating cell membranes into cells, and Ames test results also show that the mutagenicity of CelRed dye is much less than EB. 2) High sensitivity:
