Product Name Lysosomal pH Yellow/Blue Fluorescent Probe (DND-160)
Catalog No. RESK-0559
Description This series of probes comprises fluorescent probes for measuring the pH of acidic compartments (such as lysosomes and sperm acrosomes) in living cells. The probes are acidotropic: they accumulate in acidic organelles through protonation, and this acidotropism relieves fluorescence quenching of the dye, resulting in stronger emitted fluorescence. Therefore, unlike pH-independent lysosomal probes (such as the DND-26/DND-99 type), these pH-sensitive probes show a pH-dependent (acid-directed) increase in fluorescence intensity as the organelle acidifies. The Lysosomal pH Yellow/Blue Fluorescent Probe (DND-160, PDMPO) is a ratiometric probe for measuring lysosomal pH. It is a pH-dependent fluorescent probe displaying dual excitation and dual emission wavelengths: it produces blue fluorescence in neutral environments (Ex/Em = 329 nm/440 nm) and emits yellow fluorescence when the environment becomes acidic (Ex/Em = 384 nm/540 nm). The product is supplied as a 1 mM stock solution in anhydrous DMSO.
Intended Use Ratiometric measurement of pH in acidic compartments (e.g., lysosomes, sperm acrosomes) of living cells.
Principle / Technology The acidotropic probe accumulates in acidic organelles via protonation, which relieves fluorescence quenching and strengthens the emitted fluorescence in a pH-dependent manner. DND-160 (PDMPO) exhibits dual excitation and dual emission: blue fluorescence (Ex/Em = 329 nm/440 nm) at neutral pH shifts to yellow fluorescence (Ex/Em = 384 nm/540 nm) under acidic conditions, enabling ratiometric pH measurement.
Detection Method Ratiometric fluorescence detection with dual excitation (329 nm and 384 nm) and dual emission (440 nm and 540 nm).
Sample Type Living cells (acidic compartments such as lysosomes and sperm acrosomes).
