BDP 576/589 (a BODIPY™ 576/589 analog) is a boron dipyrromethene dye. This hydrophobic dye has high quantum yield and long excited-state lifetime (about 5 nanoseconds). It can be used for measuring fluorescence lifetime and fluorescence polarization and in two-photon laser scanning microscopy. This reagent is an activated N-hydroxysuccinimide ester of the dye with reactivity to primary and secondary amino groups.
