Cy5-DSPE
Cy5-DSPE is a far-infrared fluorescent phospholipid (λex/λem = 600/665 nm). Cy5-DSPE is used to label liposomes, membranes and lipid nanoparticles, and can be applied to tracking and imaging studies of liposomes.

Biological Activity
Guide (The following is the recommended operation procedure, for reference only. Adjustments are needed according to your specific requirements). 1. Film Method: (1) Mix Cy5-DSPE with other lipids (such as PC, cholesterol) in a round-bottom flask.
(2) Evaporate the solvent (using a rotary evaporator) to form a lipid film.
(3) Vacuum dry the film to remove residual solvents.
(4) Hydrate the film with a buffer (such as PBS), then ultrasonicate or extrude to prepare liposomes.
2. Insertion Method: Another method is to directly add a small amount of Cy5-DSPE solution to the pre-prepared vesicle suspension and incubate it under conditions close to the lipid phase transition temperature to insert it into the membrane.
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
