BDP FL acid is a green-fluorescent free carboxylic acid linker of BDP FL, which is a dye for fluorescein (FAM) channel.
BDP FL acid can be used as a non-reactive control for reference and calibration as well as conjugation after the activation with carbodiimides. This dye has several characteristics that make it potentially superior in some applications, including high extinction coefficient, high fluorescence quantum yield, narrow emission bandwidth, red shift in fluorescence emission at high dye concentrations, relatively long excited-state lifetime, etc.
ChEBI: BODIPY FL is a BODIPY dye and a monocarboxylic acid. It has a role as a fluorochrome. It is functionally related to a 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene.
