ER-Tracker Red (BODIPY TR Glibenclamide)
This product is a cell-permeant fluorescent probe that selectively labels the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). It specifically combines the ER-targeting glibenclamide derivative with bright, photostable BODIPY TR fluorescence.
Key Features and Benefits
-
ER Selectivity: Specifically localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum via glibenclamide binding.
-
BODIPY TR Fluorophore: Provides bright red fluorescence (Ex/Em ≈ 589/616 nm).
-
Live-Cell Compatibility: Penetrates membranes and stains ER in live cells.
-
Photostability: Maintains strong fluorescence during long-term imaging.
-
High Sensitivity: Detects ER structure and dynamics with high resolution.
Applications
-
Cell Imaging: Visualizes ER structure and function in live and fixed cells.
-
Organelle Studies: Tracks ER distribution, morphology, and stress responses.
-
Drug Discovery: Supports screening of compounds affecting ER pathways.
-
Fluorescence Microscopy: Enables single- and multi-color imaging workflows.
Storage and Handling
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a sealed, light-protected container.
-
Handling: Dissolve in DMSO for stock solutions; avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles.
This product integrates ER-specific targeting with bright BODIPY TR fluorescence, specifically providing a reliable probe for ER visualization in live-cell studies.
