LysoPrime Deep Red - High Specificity and pH Resistance

Description

The lysosome is an organelle in which a biomembrane forms an acid vacuole. Lysosomes contain various degrading enzymes and contribute to maintaining intracellular homeostasis by acting as a waste disposal system. Recent findings reveal that lysosomal dysfunction is related to some neurodegenerative disorders. Consequently, the investigation of lysosomal function is attracting considerable interest in the scientific community.

Many small fluorescent probes are used to monitor lysosomes in living cells. Dojindo's LysoPrime Deep Red overcomes known problems with fluorescent lysosome probes, such as lack of specificity for lysosomes and staining dependent on the lysosomal pH. In addition, the high-retentivity of LysoPrime Deep Red enables long-term imaging experiments. And LysoPrime Deep Red emits 633 nm, allowing multiple imaging.
