Background:

BODIPY 493/503 is a lipophilic fluorescent probe that localizes to polar lipids and can be used to label cellular neutral lipid contents, particularly those localized to lipid droplets, in live and fixed cells.[1],[2] BODIPY 493/503 is compatible with epifluorescent, confocal, and two-photon microscopy, as well as flow cytometry. It displays excitation/emission maxima of 493/503 nm, respectively, and can be used for live and fixed cell applications.
