FITC-Dextran (MW 150000)
Based on 5 publication(s) in Google Scholar
FITC-Dextran (MW 150000) is a fluorescent probe for fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) dextran (Ex=491 nm; Em=518 nm). FITC-Dextran (MW 150000) can be used as a marker to reveal heat shock-induced cell damage and to study the early and late stages of apoptosis. FITC-Dextran (MW 150000) can be used in perfusion studies in animals or in fluorescence microlymphography, to study processes that affect the permeability of the blood brain barrier (BBB). FITC-Dextran (MW 150000) can be used as fluorescent probe to study cell permeability.

Guidelines (Following is our recommended protocol. This protocol only provides a guideline, and should be modified according to your specific needs).
Labeling of cells[1]:
For use with apoptotic HeLa cells and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) (viable HeLa and PBMC can not be stained by FITC-Dextran).
1. Incubate cells at 43.5°C for 1 hour and at 37°C for 8 hours to induce apoptosis.
2. Suspend the cells in 100 μL of medium, and mix in Q-prep tubes with 10 μL of propidium iodide (PI), 10 μL of FITC-Dextran (MW 150000) (the final concentration of PI and FITC-Dextran (MW 150000) is 7.5 μM and 1.13 μM, respectively).
3. Incubate cells for 25 min at room temperature in the dark.
4. Take the labeled cells with 3 mL of medium and centrifuge for 10 min at 500 g.
5. Take centrifuged cells with 1 mL of medium and use flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy analyze (PI: Ex=500 nm, Em=600 nm; FITC-Dextran (MW 150000): Ex=495 nm, Em=525 nm).
Paracellular permeability measurement[4]
1. Add FITC-dextran (0.1 mg/mL) to the basal media in the transwell chamber.
2. Collect media from the transwell insert after 15 min.
3. Measure the fluorescence signal (Ex=485 nm, Em=538 nm).
4. Calculate FITC-dextran concentration based on fluorescence intensity.
5. Calculate permeability.
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
For intestinal barrier function assay[5]
1. Fast mice for 4 h.
2. Orally gavage mice with FITC-Dextran MW 150000 (0.6 mg/g).
3. Measure fluorescence intensity of plasma in 4 h (excitation nm/emission 520 nm).

FITC-Dextran (MW 150000) purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Engineering. 2026 Jan 21.
Evaluation of endothelial barrier permeability by monitoring the diffusion of FITC and 40 and 150 kDa FITC-dextran into microspheres in the presence or absence of an HUVEC layer. The results showed that after 2 h of diffusion, the endothelial layer significantly reduced the influx of free FITC compared to the control. Similarly, the penetration of 40 and 150 kDa FITC-dextrans into the hydrogel core was markedly slowed. At the 2-h time point, endothelialized microspheres exhibited significantly lower intramicrosphere fluorescence accumulation than non-endothelialized controls. These findings confirm that the engineered endothelial barrier exerts size-selective regulation over molecular permeation.
