|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
5-Carboxytetramethylrhodamine can be used as a fluorescent probe of nucleic acids and proteins. 5-Carboxytetramethylrhodamine displays excitation maxima of 558 nm and an emission maximum of 586 nm.
|
| ln Vivo |
There is no specific in vivo activity data available for this compound. This compound is a classic fluorescent dye (a rhodamine derivative) used extensively as a labeling reagent in molecular biology.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
A standard protocol involves conjugating 5-Carboxytetramethylrhodamine to a target molecule (e.g., an antibody or oligonucleotide) using carbodiimide chemistry (e.g., EDC/NHS). The labeled product is then purified and analyzed by fluorescence spectroscopy (Ex/Em: 558/586 nm).
|
| Cell Assay |
A general protocol for cell staining involves incubating fixed and permeabilized cells with a 5-Carboxytetramethylrhodamine-conjugated antibody or probe (e.g., 1-10 ug/mL) for 1 hour at room temperature. After washing, cells are imaged using a fluorescence microscope with a TRITC (tetramethylrhodamine) filter set.
|
| Animal Protocol |
There is no standard in vivo protocol for this compound. However, 5-Carboxytetramethylrhodamine-labeled probes (e.g., antibodies or nanoparticles) can be injected intravenously into animal models for imaging studies. General guidelines for in vivo imaging should be followed, including dose optimization and circulation time.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
General PK properties for small molecule dyes are not typically applicable. In vivo, 5-Carboxytetramethylrhodamine-labeled conjugates will exhibit PK properties dictated by the conjugated carrier (e.g., antibody or nanoparticle). Free dye is likely cleared rapidly via renal filtration.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
General toxicity for fluorescent dyes is considered low. At working concentrations (uM range), 5-Carboxytetramethylrhodamine exhibits minimal toxicity. The carboxylic acid group allows for conjugation to biomolecules with minimal impact on their function.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (2.90 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 12.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (2.90 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 12.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

*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.
