bodipy 493/503

BODIPY 493 503 (Pyrromethene 546) is a lipophilic fluorescent probe with Ex Em of 493 503 nm. BODIPY 493 503 localizes to polar lipids and can be used to label cellular neutral lipid contents and for live and fixed cell applications.

BODIPY 493 503 dye is a vividly green fluorescent dye known for its high molar extinction coefficient and fluorescence quantum yield. It exhibits minimal sensitivity to changes in solvent polarity and pH values. The excitation emission wavelengths are 496 508 nm.

BODIPY 493 503 NHS ester is a widely used reagent for conjugating this dye to proteins or antibodies. The NHS ester reacts with primary amines (R-NH2) of proteins, amine-modified oligonucleotides, and other amine-containing molecules. The resulting BODIPY 493 503 conjugates exhibit bright fluorescence, narrow emission bandwidth, and relatively long excited-state lifetimes, which are suitable for fluorescence polarization assays and two-photon excitation (TPE) microscopy. Ex Em(nm) = 496 508.

2,6-Diiodo-BODIPY 493 503, a fluorescent F-Bodipy dye, features a diiodo substitution at the (pyrrole) 2,6 position. This pyrrole iodine substituent imparts a red hue to the compound [1].

BODIPY493 503 methyl bromide, a BODIPY dye, is a small molecule with strong ultraviolet absorption, a sharp fluorescence peak, and high quantum yield. It exhibits relative insensitivity to environmental polarity and pH while maintaining stability under various physiological conditions. The structural asymmetry of BODIPY allows for diverse structural derivatives. BODIPY lipid droplet dyes effectively permeate the cell membrane, localize polar lipids, and specifically stain lipid droplets, making them suitable for labeling both live and fixed cells [1]. Maximum excitation emission wavelength: 493 503 nm [1].
