BDP 581/591 is a bright and versatile fluorophore that is relatively hydrophobic. It has a high brightness, significant two photon cross-section, and relatively long fluorescence lifetime. The dye reacts with reactive oxygen species (ROS) with the change of its fluorescence. It can be therefore used for intracellular monitoring of ROS. This is an azide derivative that can be used for the conjugation with both small molecules and biomolecules to construct tracers for fluorescence polarization assays and microscopy probes.
