Fluorescent cationic styryl probe for mitochondrial staining

Reactant or reagent involved in:• ;Two-photon absorption of organic / polyoxometalate hybrid dyes1• ;Acting as an acceptor for the 1D light-harvesting antenna2• ;Functional live cell fluorescence imaging for pulmonary neuroepithelial body microenvironments3• ;Studies of solvatochromism and dipole moments of monochromophoric styrylpyridinium dyes4

Some cationic mitochondrial dyes such as 4-Di-1-ASP and 4-Di-2-ASP stain presynaptic nerve terminals independent of neuronal activity.

ChEBI: An organic iodide salt consisting of pyridinium iodide having a methyl substituent at the 1-position and a 4-diethylaminostyryl substituent at the 4-position.
