BODIPY 493/503 methyl bromide（Cat No.:I043061）is a fluorescent dye commonly used in molecular biology and biochemistry applications. It belongs to the BODIPY (boron-dipyrromethene) family of fluorophores, which are known for their high brightness, excellent photostability, and narrow emission spectra. This particular BODIPY derivative emits in the green-yellow region (493/503 nm), making it ideal for fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, and other imaging techniques. The methyl bromide group allows for conjugation with biomolecules through nucleophilic substitution, enabling the labeling of proteins, nucleic acids, or lipids for detailed cellular and molecular studies.
