| Targets |
Fluorescent Red Mega 480 does not have a specific biological target. Its primary function is as a fluorescent label for biological imaging and detection applications. The large Stokes shift allows for efficient separation of excitation and emission light, reducing background and enabling multiplexing. It is designed for use in fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, and other fluorescence-based techniques.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Fluorescent Red Mega 480 is used as a fluorescent label for staining cells, tissues, or biomolecules. Its large Stokes shift makes it particularly useful for multicolor experiments where multiple fluorophores are used simultaneously. Specific in vitro activity data, such as effects on cells, are not applicable as it is a fluorescent dye rather than a pharmacologically active compound.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo applications of Fluorescent Red Mega 480 are not specifically described in the available sources. As a fluorescent dye, it could potentially be used for in vivo imaging, such as tracking cells or monitoring biological processes in animal models. However, its primary use is in in vitro and ex vivo applications. Specific in vivo data are not provided.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
A cell-free assay for Fluorescent Red Mega 480 is not applicable as it is not an enzyme inhibitor or receptor ligand. Its properties are characterized by spectroscopic methods. Its excitation and emission spectra can be measured in solution to confirm the large Stokes shift. The dye's fluorescence quantum yield and photostability can also be assessed in cell-free systems.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular experiments with Fluorescent Red Mega 480 typically involve staining cells for fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry. Cells are incubated with the dye at appropriate concentrations, washed, and then analyzed. The large Stokes shift allows for the use of standard fluorescein filter sets for excitation. Specific protocols depend on the application and cell type.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments for Fluorescent Red Mega 480 are not described in the available sources. As a fluorescent dye, it could potentially be used for in vivo imaging studies, but specific protocols and data are not provided.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Fluorescent Red Mega 480 is a small molecule dye with a molecular weight of 514.6. Its pharmacokinetic properties are not reported in the available sources. As a fluorescent dye used in research, its biodistribution and clearance are not typically characterized unless it is used for in vivo imaging applications. The dye is soluble in appropriate solvents for biological applications.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity data for Fluorescent Red Mega 480 are not provided in the available sources. As a fluorescent dye, it is generally considered to have low toxicity for its intended research applications. However, specific toxicological information is not available. The compound is intended for research use only and not for human consumption. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound.
