Description
4-Di-10-ASP is a lipophilic styryl probe, containing a C10 dialkyl chain and inserting into membranes with its two alkyl tails.
Uses
4-Di-10-ASP is a fluorescent lipophilic tracer (Excitation 485 nm; Emission 620 nm). 4-Di-10-ASP can be used to stain phospholipid membranes in a specific manner[1][2].
