BODIPY 493/503 (Pyrromethene 546)

Catalog No.: A24603

Neutral Lipid Dye

BODIPY 493/503 is a member of the BODIPY (boron-dipyrromethene) family of small-molecule fluorescent dyes, characterized by strong absorption in the ultraviolet-visible range, narrow and well-defined emission spectra, and high fluorescence quantum yields. These dyes exhibit minimal sensitivity to environmental polarity and pH, maintaining stable photophysical properties under a wide range of physiological conditions.

Due to the structural versatility of the BODIPY core, numerous derivatives with tailored properties can be generated. BODIPY-based lipid droplet probes readily permeate cellular membranes and selectively localize to neutral lipid compartments, enabling specific staining of intracellular lipid droplets. This makes them suitable for both live-cell imaging and fixed-cell applications.

Maximum excitation/emission wavelengths: 493/503 nm.
