Description

6-CDCFDA is a live cell fluorescent tracer probe with membrane permeability and thus can be loaded into cells via incubation. Once inside cells, the non-fluorescent 6-CDCFDA is hydrolyzed by intracellular esterases to carboxyfluorescein. These fluorescent products can only accumulate in cells with integral cell-membrane and be detected by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry.

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.
