Product Information
| Description: | 3,3'-Diethyloxacarbocyanine iodide is a microviscosity probe for micelles and microemulsions. DiOC2(3) (3,3′-Diethyloxacarbocyanine, iodide) is a fluorescent probe for measuring membrane potential. It has been used to analyze bacterial viability by flow cytometry using fluorescence emission ratio detection. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
