    Descripciòn

    BODIPY-cholesterol is an intrinsically lipophilic, and cell-permeable analog of cholesterol with a fluorescent BODIPY group. BODIPY-cholesterol can be used to monitor sterol uptake and inter-organelle sterol flux in cells. (Excitation/Emission: 505/515 nm)[1].

    Guide (The following is our recommended protocol. This protocol is only a guide and should be modified according to your specific needs).
    1. Solution preparation[1]
    1.1 Prepare stock solution
    Solvent: DMSO
    Concentration: 1 mM is recommended (e.g., weigh 0.58 mg BODIPY-Cholesterol and dissolve in 1 mL solvent).
    Storage: After aliquoting, store at -20°C or -80°C in the dark and avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
    1.2 Preparation of working solution
    Dilute to 0.5-5 μM (optimized according to the experiment) with PBS (or other buffer).
    Note: The working solution should be prepared and used immediately, and protected from light.
    2. Cell staining
    2.1 Wash cells with PBS.
    2.2 Label the cell suspension with BODIPY-Cholesterol (final concentration 0.5-5 μM), mix well and incubate at 37°C for 10-20 minutes.
    2.3 Flow cytometric detection (Ex/Em = 505/515 nm).

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
