Description

TMRM is a cell-permeant, cationic, red-orange fluorescent dye that is readily sequestered by active mitochondria. TMRM are preferred dyes for quantitative measurements of membrane potentials using the Nernst equation. The dyes do not form aggregates in cell membranes and have minimal interaction with membrane proteins. Thus, the transmembrane distribution of the dyes is directly related to the membrane potential according to the Nernst equation.

Notes

1. There are quenching problems with fluorescent dyes. Please avoid light to slow down the fluorescence quenching.

2. For your safety and health, please wear lab coats and disposable gloves.
