Usage

General Description

Neurodye DiBAC4(5) is a voltage-sensitive dye used to study changes in membrane potential in neurons and other excitable cells. It is a lipophilic, cationic dye that becomes fluorescent and accumulates in the cell membrane when the membrane potential becomes more negative. This allows researchers to monitor changes in membrane potential in real time, providing valuable insights into the electrical activity of the cells. Neurodye DiBAC4(5) is commonly used in fluorescence imaging and electrophysiological studies to understand the mechanisms underlying neural communication and signal processing. Its ability to accurately and rapidly measure changes in membrane potential makes it a valuable tool for studying the function of neurons and other excitable cells.
