Description: | DiI or DiIC18(3) is one of the most commonly used cell membrane fluorescent probes with a maximum excitation wavelength of 549 nm and emission wavelength of 565 nm. It shows orange-red fluorescence. Commonly used as a long-term tracer for neurons and other cells. Store at room temperature away from light. |
Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
