Product Description
BODIPY-FL NHS ester is a bright green fluorescent dye.
BODIPY-FL NHS ester (CAS 146616-66-2) is a bright, green-fluorescent dye. It has a molecular formula of C18H18BF2N3O4 and a molecular weight of 389.16. The NHS ester is an amine-reactive probe that can be used to label proteins, peptides, and other molecules containing primary amines. It is cell-permeable and has high stability.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
BODIPY-FL NHS ester does not have a specific biological target; it is a fluorescent labeling reagent. The NHS ester reacts with primary amines (-NH2) on proteins, peptides, or other biomolecules to form a stable amide bond. This allows for the covalent attachment of the bright green fluorophore to the target molecule for detection and imaging applications.
ln Vitro
BODIPY-FL NHS ester is not evaluated for biological activity as a drug; it is a fluorescent probe. Its utility is assessed by its fluorescence properties, including excitation/emission maxima of 502/511 nm. It has high stability and is insensitive to polarity, pH, and solvent type. It is cell-permeable, making it suitable for labeling intracellular targets.
ln Vivo
BODIPY-FL NHS ester is not evaluated for in vivo biological activity as a drug; it is a fluorescent probe. It may be used in vivo for imaging applications, such as tracking labeled proteins or cells in animal models. However, the compound itself is not a therapeutic agent.
Enzyme Assay
There are no specific in vitro enzyme or receptor binding assays for BODIPY-FL NHS ester as a drug target. Its properties are characterized by absorbance and fluorescence spectra, quantum yield, and reactivity with amines. The efficiency of labeling can be assessed by SDS-PAGE and fluorescence imaging.
Cell Assay
There are no specific in vitro cellular assays for BODIPY-FL NHS ester as a pharmacologically active compound. As a fluorescent probe, it is used to label proteins or other biomolecules. Cells are incubated with the labeled molecule, and fluorescence is visualized by microscopy or flow cytometry. Its cell permeability allows for labeling of intracellular targets.
Animal Protocol
There are no specific in vivo animal studies for BODIPY-FL NHS ester as a pharmacologically active compound. As a fluorescent probe, it may be used for in vivo imaging studies, where the labeled molecule is administered to animals and its distribution is tracked by fluorescence imaging.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of BODIPY-FL NHS ester are not applicable, as it is a fluorescent probe rather than a drug. The compound is not intended for administration as a therapeutic agent.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity profile of BODIPY-FL NHS ester is not extensively reported. As a fluorescent probe, it is not intended for human therapeutic use. The compound should be handled with care in a laboratory setting. No specific toxicity data are reported.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
