Description and Uses

1,1'-Dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethylindocarbocyanine perchlorate is a lipophilic carbocyanine dye that can be used for optical recordings of membrane voltage and for studies of membrane fluidity.

1,1'-Dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethylindocarbocyanine per chlorate is a lipophilic dye used to record membrane voltage for fluidity studies. This retrograde stain is useful in staining neuronsin vitroandin vivobecause the stain is relatively nontoxic to cell bodies and the dye is retained in neurons. In addition, 1,1'-Dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethylindocarbocyanine per chlorate is an ideal retrograde and anterograde tracer to label the processes as well as the cell bodies of cultured neurons.
