产品描述

Nile red is a common lipid dye. Nile red is a hydrophobic and metachromatic dye with poor solubility and fluorescence in water, with colour emission varying from deep red to strong yellow gold in hydrophobic environments[1].

Nile red can dye the cholesterol in the human plasma through staining of lipid vesicles in smooth muscle cells and in cultured macrophages incubated at low density, using the excitation/emission wavelengths 450 to 500/>528[2]. Nile red was also used to study membrane heterogeneity[3]and ligand-hydrophobic protein surface interactions with the alternative wavelengths 570/610[4]and to study enzyme mechanism by using the wavelengths 550/640 to 660[5]. Nile red has also been successfully used to stain intracellular neutral lipids that is, TAG and cholesterol esters in yeast, fungi with coupled wavelengths 488/565 to 585[6]and also in microalgae, with wavelengths set to 488 to 525/570 to 600[7]or to stain total lipids with wavelengths set to 490/585[8].
