Glycine, N-[2-[(acetyloxy)methoxy]-2-oxoethyl]-N-[5-[2-[2-[bis[2-[(acetyloxy)methoxy]-2-oxoethyl]amino]-5-methylphenoxy]ethoxy]-2-[(5-oxo-2-thioxo-4-imidazolidinylidene)methyl]-6-benzofuranyl]-, (acetyloxy)methyl ester
Fura Red is a Ca2+-sensitive fluorescent dye, which decreases in fluorescence with rising [Ca2+][1].
Definition
ChEBI: A 1-benzofuran substituted at position 2 by a (5-oxo-2-thioxoimidazolidin-4-ylidene)methyl group, and at C-5 and C-6 by heavily substituted oxygen and nitrogen functionalities respectively.
