CytoCalcein Violet 450 is a fluorogenic dye used to assess cell viability. It is a cell-permeable dye that, upon entering cells, is cleaved by intracellular esterases. CytoCalcein Violet 450 is retained by living cells and displays excitation emission maxima of 405 450 nm, respectively.
Z-(L-Arg)-AMC is a fluorogenic substrate for trypsin, cathepsin B, and cathepsin H.1,2Upon enzymatic cleavage by trypsin, cathepsin B, or cathepsin H, 7-amino-4-methylcoumarin (AMC) is released and its fluorescence can be used to quantify trypsin, cathepsin B, and cathepsin H activity. AMC displays excitation emission maxima of 340-360 440-460 nm, respectively. 1.Zimmerman, M., Ashe, B., Yurewicz, E.C., et al.Sensitive assays for trypsin, elastase, and chymotrypsin using new fluorogenic substratesAnal.

NEP, a turn-on fluorescent probe employing the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) mechanism, facilitates the detection of vicinal dithiol-containing proteins (VDPs). Notably, NEP exhibits exceptional selectivity towards VDPs in live cells and in vivo and manifests a robust green fluorescence signal at λ ex λ em =430 535 nm. Furthermore, NEP bears promise for the potential diagnosis and study of parkinsonism.
CytoCalcein Violet 500 is a fluorogenic dye used to assess cell viability. It is a cell-permeable dye that, upon entering cells, is cleaved by intracellular esterases. CytoCalcein Violet 500 is retained by living cells and displays excitation emission maxima of 405 500 nm, respectively.
7-Hydroxycoumarin-3-carboxylic acid, SE is the amine-reactive succinimidyl ester of 7-Hydroxycoumarin-3-carboxylic acid. This coumarin is also increasingly used to label peptides, nucleotides and carbohydrates.
