Product Data Sheet
6-CFDA
Catalog No. A24958
6-CFDA is a fluorescent dye commonly used in biological research for cell tracking and viability assays. It undergoes free diffusion into cells, where it is hydrolyzed by intracellular non-specific lipases to produce carboxyfluorescein, a fluorescent compound that carries an additional negative charge. This enhanced charge improves retention within cells compared to traditional fluorescein dyes, facilitating more accurate analysis of cellular processes and functions.
