Esculin sesquihydrate（Cat No.:L007037）, is a natural compound derived from the bark of the horse chestnut tree (Aesculus hippocastanum). It is a glycoside consisting of glucose and esculin, a compound known for its fluorescent properties under UV light. Esculin is used in biological research as a fluorescent probe for metal ions. Its ability to chelate with metal ions, particularly iron, makes it useful in various analytical and diagnostic applications. Esculin’s fluorescence enhancement in the presence of specific metal ions is valuable in fluorescence microscopy, assays, and detection methods, aiding in scientific research and medical diagnostics.
