Neuro-DiO 4-chlorobenzenesulfonate
Neuro-DiO 4-chlorobenzenesulfonate is a hydrophobic C18 alkyl chain carbocyanine dye with green fluorescence, commonly used as a vascular marker, cell internalizer and deposition agent. Neuro-DiO 4-chlorobenzenesulfonate inserts its alkyl chain into the endothelial plasma membrane via liposome-mediated perfusion to achieve vascular labeling. Neuro-DiO chlorobenzenesulfonate can also stain the cell membrane and cytoplasm of cancer cells to assist in confocal microscopy observations. Neuro-DiO chlorobenzenesulfonate can be released from nanosponges and accumulate on the surface of mouse retina, then internalize into retinal ganglion cells, which is applicable to researches related to glaucoma and other diseases. It should be noted that during liposome-mediated vascular staining in mice, Neuro-DiO 4-chlorobenzenesulfonate may cause leakage of airway lavage fluid.
