C6 NBD Ceramide(Cat No.:R001640)is a fluorescently labeled ceramide analog, where the ceramide molecule is conjugated with a 6-carbon chain and a 4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole (NBD) fluorophore. This compound is commonly used in lipid metabolism and cellular signaling studies to track the movement and distribution of ceramides within cells. The NBD group enables visualization via fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry, helping researchers investigate ceramide-mediated signaling pathways, including those involved in cell growth, apoptosis, and stress responses. C6 NBD Ceramide is a valuable tool in lipidomics and the study of membrane dynamics.
