6-TRITC  (Synonyms: Tetramethylrhodamine-6-isothiocyanate)

6-TRITC (Tetramethylrhodamine-6-isothiocyanate) is a potent fluorescent tracer. 6-TRITC can be used as an probe for haptenated proteins/peptides for the research of contact allergy. 6-TRITC can be used as a tracer for the confocal imaging in living cells^[1][2].

6-TRITC is relatively photostable and robust toward pH changes^[1].
6-TRITC as an extreme sensitizer induces a massive cell proliferation and gave an EC3 value of 0.92 mM (0.040%) in the murine LLNA (local lymph node assay)^[1].
6-TRITC (1.0 mg; 2h) can used as fluorescence probe for confocal imaging in Fe3O4@PDA incubated living cells^[2].
