La sonda sensible al potencial de respuesta lenta, DiBAC4(3) puede entrar en células despolarizadas donde se une a las proteínas intracelulares o a la membrana y muestra una mayor fluorescencia y un cambio espectral rojo. El aumento de la despolarización produce un flujo adicional del colorante aniónico y un aumento de la fluorescencia. Por el contrario, la hiperpolarización se indica mediante una disminución de la fluorescencia. Este bis-oxonal tiene un máximo de excitación de 490 nm y un máximo de emisión de 516 nm. Los colorantes DiBAC se excluyen de las mitocondrias debido a su carga negativa general, haciéndolos superiores a las carbocianinas para medir los potenciales de la membrana plasmática.
Para uso exclusivo en investigación. No apto para uso en procedimientos diagnósticos.

Preguntas frecuentes

I am seeing high background outside of my neuronal cells when using membrane potential indicators. What can I do to reduce background?

If you use our FluoVolt Membrane Potential Kit (Cat. No. F10488), the kit provides a background suppressor to reduce this problem. For other indicators, consider the use of BackDrop Background Suppressor (Cat no. R37603, B10511, and B10512).

What is the difference between fast and slow-response membrane potential probes?

Molecules that change their structure in response to the surrounding electric field can function as fast-response probes for the detection of transient (millisecond) potential changes. Slow-response dyes function by entering depolarized cells and binding to proteins or membranes. Increased depolarization results in additional dye influx and an increase in fluorescence, while hyperpolarization is indicated by a decrease in fluorescence. Fast-response probes are commonly used to image electrical activity from intact heart tissues or measure membrane potential changes in response to pharmacological stimuli. Slow-responding probes are often used to explore mitochondrial function and cell viability.

The study of ion channel-mediated changes in membrane potential using the conventional bisoxonol fluorescent dye DiBAC(4)(3) has several limitations, including a slow onset of response and multistep preparation, that limit both the fidelity of the results and the throughput of membrane potential assays. Here, we report the characterization of the ... More

The molecular properties of the sulfonylurea receptor 2 (SUR2) subunits of K(ATP) channels expressed in urinary bladder were assessed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This showed that SUR2B exon 17- mRNA (72%) was predominant over the SUR2B exon 17+ splice variant (28%). The pharmacological properties of both of these isoforms ... More
