CDy9 is a highly selective fluorescent probe for the detection and isolation of mESC using fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. CDy9 allows the detection and isolation of intact stem cells with marginal impact on their function and capabilities. CD
BODIPY-aminoacetaldehyde diethyl acetal (BAAA-DA) is a stable precursor to BODIPY-aminoacetaldehyde, a cell-permeable fluorescent substrate for aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH).1,2BODIPY-aminoacetaldehyde diethyl acetal is converted under acidic conditions to BODIPY-aminoacetaldehyde (BAAA).2BAAA is cell-permeant and is converted intracellularly by ALDH to BODIPY aminoacetate (BAA), which is retained by cells and can be used to identify cells with high ALDH activity.1BAA is a substrate for the efflux pump P-glycoprotein (P-gp) but co-application of BAAA with a P-gp inhibitor, such as verapamil , inhibits BAA efflux.2BAAA-DA has been used to isolate human hematopoietic progenitor cells, which have high ALDH activity, andviaflow cytometry to sort cancer stem cells that contain high levels of ALDH.1,3BAA used in cells can be excited at 488 nm and displays an emission maximum of 512 nm.4 1.Storms, R.W., Trujillo, A.P., Springer, J.B., et al.Isolation of primitive human hematopoietic progenitors on the basis of aldehyde dehydrogenase activityProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America96(16)9118-9123(1999) 2.Smith, C.A., Colvin, M., Storms, R.W., et al.BODIPY aminoacetaldehyde diethyl acetal08010501.81-15(2010) 3.Leng, Z., Yang, Z., Li, L., et al.A reliable method for the sorting and identification of ALDHhigh cancer stem cells by flow cytometryExp.

DiIC1(5) is a signal-off fluorescent probe for the detection of mitochondrial membrane potential disruption. It accumulates in mitochondria and its fluorescence intensity decreases when the mitochondrial membrane potential is disrupted. DilC1(5) has been used in combination with a variety of cell damage and cell death markers to classify nine stages of cell death using flow cytometry. It has also been used as a quencher for the detection of serine phosphorylation and tyrosine dephosphorylation post-translational modifications (PTMs) in quenching resonance energy transfer (QRET) and mTR-FRET applications. It displays excitation emission maxima of 659 666 nm, respectively.
Fluorescein tyramide is a widely utilized green fluorescent reagent (λ abs : 494 nm; λ em : 517 nm), primarily employed for tyramide signal amplification (TSA) in low-abundance IHC, ICC, in situ hybridization (FISH), and flow cytometry (FCM) applications.
