5(6)-CFDA

Description: 5(6)-CFDA (5-(6)-Carboxyfluorescein diacetate) is a cell-permeant esterase substrate that can serve as a viability probe that measures both enzymatic activities, which is required to activate its fluorescence, and cell-membrane integrity, which is required for intracellular retention of their fluorescent product. Target: Others. Smiles: CC(=O)Oc1ccc2c(Oc3cc(OC(C)=O)ccc3C22OC(=O)c3ccc(cc23)C(O)=O)c1.CC(=O)Oc1ccc2c(Oc3cc(OC(C)=O)ccc3C22OC(=O)c3cccc(C(O)=O)c23)c1. References: Yang T, et al.
