Description

Description: DiA is a lipophilic fluorescent stain for labeling membranes and other hydrophobic structures. It has the environment-sensitive fluorescence that is greatly enhanced when incorporated into membranes or bound to lipophilic biomolecules such as proteins although it is weakly fluorescent in water. Once applied to cells, this dye diffuses laterally within the cellular plasma membranes, resulting in even staining of the entire cell at its optimal concentrations.
