FITC-Dextran (MW 40000) is a fluorescent probe for fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) dextran (Ex=495 nm; Em=525 nm). FITC-Dextran (MW 40000) 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 40000) can also be used for cell permeability studies, such as blood-brain barrier permeability and determination of the extent of blood-brain barrier disruption.

: FITC-Dextran (MW 40000) purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Adv Sci (Weinh). 2025 Aug;12(30):e00461. [Abstract]; The plasma FD4 level in Acss2^CKO and Acss2^fl/fl mice (n = 7). For intestinal permeability assessment, mice were fasted for 8 h, followed by oral administration of FITC‑Dextran (MW 40000, 0.6 mg/g body weight). Four hours after gavage, mice were sacrificed, and plasma samples were collected for fluorescence intensity measurement at 490 nm. A standard curve of FD40000 was used to calculate the plasma concentration. Intestinal permeability was obviously impaired in Acss2^CKO mice, as determined by FD4 (FITC‑Dextran, MW 40000) gavage.

Descripciòn	FITC-Dextran (MW 40000) is a fluorescent probe for fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) dextran (Ex=495 nm; Em=525 nm). FITC-Dextran (MW 40000) 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 40000) can also be used for cell permeability studies, such as blood-brain barrier permeability and determination of the extent of blood-brain barrier disruption^[1]^[2]^[3].
In Vitro	Guide (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 cells 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 40000) (the final concentration of PI and FITC-Dextran (MW 40000) 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 40000): 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.

In Vivo	Guidelines (Following is our recommended protocol. This protocol only provides a guideline, and should be modified according to your specific needs). For intestinal barrier function assay^[5] 1. Fast mice for 4 h. 2. Orally gavage mice with FITC-Dextran MW 40000 (0.6 mg/g). 3. Measure fluorescence intensity of plasma in 4 h (excitation nm/emission 520 nm). MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
