LysoBrite Blue

LysoBrite Blue (Ex-Max 432 nm/Em-Max 480 nm)

LysoBrite Blue from AAT Bioquest is a cell-permeant alkaline probe that localizes to acidic compartments inside the cell, such as endosomes and lysosomes. These types of probes are designed for live-cell imaging and do not typically survive fixation and permeabilization. LysoBrite Blue has an excitation peak at 432 nm and an emission peak at 480 nm.
