Coppersensor 1 (CS1) is a boron dipyrromethene-based fluorescent sensor for selective and sensitive detection of copper(I) ions (Cu + ) in biological samples. Coppersensor 1 can be imaged using any type of fluorescence microscope, including epifluorescence, confocal and multiphoton.

MitoSOX Red is a novel fluorescent probe that is specific and cell membrane-permeable and targets mitochondria in living cells.MitoSOX Red is oxidized by superoxide upon entry into the mitochondria and is not oxidized by other ROS or RNS-generating systems.MitoSOX Red then binds to nucleic acids in the mitochondrion and produces a strong red fluorescence.MitoSOX Red can be used as a fluorescent indicator for the specific detection of superoxide.MitoSOX Red can be used as a fluorescent indicator for the specific detection of superoxide. MitoSOX Red can be used as a fluorescent indicator to specifically detect superoxide. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) prevents the oxidation of MitoSOX Red.

Fura-2 AM is a membrane-permeable Ca²⁺ (calcium ion) indicator that is converted to Fura-2 by esterase within cells.

5-CFDA-AM is a cell-permeable esterase substrate used as an active probe to evaluate enzyme activity and cell membrane integrity. Electroneutral and able to enter cells at lower concentrations than CFDA, it undergoes intracellular hydrolysis by esterases to produce carboxyfluorescein, which possesses an extra negative charge, enhancing cellular retention [1].

ING-2 AM is a membrane-permeable fluorescent indicator specifically designed for sodium ions (Na+), exhibiting a binding affinity with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 20 mM. With excitation and emission maxima (λ) at 525 nm and 545 nm respectively, this compound achieves a 20-fold selectivity over potassium ions (K+). It is utilized both in vitro and in situ to monitor real-time sodium influx.

IPG-4 AM, a membrane-permeable fluorescent indicator, specifically binds to potassium ions (K+) with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 7 mM. This compound exhibits excitation and emission maxima (λ) at 525 nm and 545 nm, respectively, and displays a 100:1 selectivity for K+ over sodium ions (Na+).

Calpain substrate is a membrane non-permeable, fluorogenic compound used in Calpain enzymatic activity assays [1].

EDTA-AM (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, acetoxymethyl ester) represents the membrane-permeable version of the metal chelator EDTA. By incubating live cells with EDTA-AM, they passively absorb this compound. After entering the cell, cytoplasmic esterases break down the AM esters, liberating the active chelating agent EDTA that sequesters metal ions internally. The presence of EDTA-AM in cells leads to the cessation of mitotic progression and the decondensation of chromosomes [1] [2].

FFP-18-AM, a cell-permeable fluorescent indicator, is designed for the measurement of near-membrane calcium.

LysoTracker Yellow HCK 123 is an efficient yellow fluorescent probe that is membrane-permeable. It is a weakly basic amine that specifically accumulates in cellular compartments with low luminal pH. (λ ex =465 nm, λ em =535 nm) [1].
