FITC-inulin
FITC-inulin is a FITC (HY-66019)-labeled inulin (Ex/Em=488/525 nm). FITC-inulin serves as an accurate and stable marker for in vivo renal function assessment. FITC-inulin exhibits pH-dependent fluorescence.

Biological Activity
The fluorescence intensity of FITC-inulin (0-0.8 mg/mL) correlates linearly with its concentration; its fluorescence intensity is pH-dependent, but this can be corrected using HEPES buffer[1].

Result:Showed high correlation with [125I]iothalamate for tubular fluid-to-plasma (TF/P) ratios.
Correlated highly with [125I]iothalamate for whole kidney glomerular filtration rate (GFR).
Exhibited late-proximal TF/P of 1.89, single-nephron GFR (SNGFR) of 9.64 nl/min, and fractional fluid reabsorption of 45.3% before acetazolamide treatment; these values decreased to 1.48, 6.65 nl/min, and 26.8% after acetazolamide treatment.
Maintained stable measurements of TF/P, fluid flow, and SNGFR for at least 2 weeks when stored in the dark at 4°C, with post-storage values nearly identical to initial measurements.
