Biological description
Highly fluorescent dye useful for labeling oligonucleotide, antibody and protein studies and for the preparation of peptide and esterase substrates.
Rhodol is a structural hybrid of fluorescein and rhodamine. It retains the pH-sensitive properties conferred by a phenolic hydroxyl group, but the amine substituent reduces the pKa values. Rhodol exhibits a high extinction coefficient (~70,000 cm-1M-1) and high quantum yield (~0.8-0.9) in aqueous solution, with absorption maxima at approximately 490 nm and emission maxima between 520 and 545 nm. As with fluorescein-based dyes, the fluorescence excitation profiles of rhodol-based dyes are pH dependent, which can be useful for ratiometric pH determinations intracellularly.
