    • Overview
      • DiO is a green fluorescent, lipophilic carbocyanine and widely used as a lipophilic tracer. It is weakly fluorescent in water but highly fluorescent and quite photostable when incorporated into membranes. It has an extremely high extinction coefficient and short excited-state lifetimes (~1 nanosecond) in lipid environments. Once applied to cells, the dye diffuses laterally within the plasma membrane.

    • Applications
      • Application Description
        Cell membrane fluorescent dyes are fluorescent markers used to label cell membranes and other lipophilic biological structures. Common cell membrane fluorescent dyes include DiD, DiR, DiO, and DiI dyes, which are a group of lipophilic fluorescent dyes. Once these dyes enter the cell membrane, they laterally diffuse across the entire membrane, and at optimal concentrations, they can stain the entire cell membrane. These dyes come in different fluorescence colors, making them suitable for multicolor fluorescence imaging analysis and flow cytometry in live cells. They provide great convenience for the study of cell membrane morphology and structure.
