Lucifer yellow CH, lithium salt is a water-soluble dye with excitation/emission peaks of 428/536 nm. It is a favorite tool for studying neuronal morphology, because it contains a carbohydrazide (CH) group that allows it to be covalently linked to surrounding biomolecules during aldehyde fixation. The lithium salt form of the lucifer yellow CH is commonly used for microinjection because it has higher solubility than the potassium and ammonium salt forms of lucifer yellow CH.

To make a concentrated stock solution, dissolve in H2O up to 8% (w/v). Store frozen and protected from light.

Abstract
Endothelial and smooth muscle cell conduction in arterioles controlling blood flow.
Authors:Welsh DG, Segal SS
Journal:Am J Physiol
PubMed ID:9458866
We performed intracellular recording with Lucifer yellow dye microinjection to investigate the cellular pathway(s) by which constriction and dilation are conducted along the wall of arterioles (diameter 47 +/- 1 microns, n = 63) supplying blood flow to the cheek pouch of anesthetized hamsters. At rest, membrane potential (Em) of ... More
Bursting response to current-evoked depolarization in rat CA1 pyramidal neurons is correlated with lucifer yellow dye coupling but not with the presence of calbindin-D28k.
Authors:Baimbridge KG, Peet MJ, McLennan H, Church J
Journal:Synapse
PubMed ID:2042109
Calbindin-D28k (CaBP) immunohistochemistry has been combined with electrophysiological recording and Lucifer Yellow (LY) cell identification in the CA1 region of the rat hippocampal formation. CaBP is shown to be contained within a distinct sub-population of CA1 pyramidal cells which is equivalent to the superficial layer described by Lorente de Nó ... More
Membrane conductance oscillations in astrocytes induced by phorbol ester.
Authors:MacVicar BA, Crichton SA, Burnard DM, Tse FW
Journal:Nature
PubMed ID:3627267
Glial cells in the central nervous systems (CNS) have complex functions which are difficult to decipher because of the intimate intertwining of glial cells with neurons. We have therefore developed an essentially neuron-free preparation of CNS astrocytes in the kainic acid lesioned hippocampal slice. With this preparation we have examined ... More
Deformation of network connectivity in the inferior olive of connexin 36-deficient mice is compensated by morphological and electrophysiological changes at the single neuron level.

Journal:J Neurosci
PubMed ID:12805309
Compensatory mechanisms after genetic manipulations have been documented extensively for the nervous system. In many cases, these mechanisms involve genetic regulation at the transcription or expression level of existing isoforms. We report a novel mechanism by which single neurons compensate for changes in network connectivity by retuning their intrinsic electrical ... More
Dual fluorescence combined with a two-color immunoperoxidase technique: a new way of visualizing diverse neuronal elements.
Authors:Pilowksy PM, Lipski J, Prestidge R, Jiang C
Journal:J Neurosci Methods
PubMed ID:1712061
'A method is described that allows an estimation of the neurotransmitter-related immunoreactivity, morphology and relationship to other immunoreactive elements, of single functionally identified neurons in the central nervous system. First, neurons are identified electrophysiologically using intracellular recording and labelled by iontophoresis of lucifer yellow (LY). After fixation and sectioning of ... More
