Description
Calcein AM (solution), has cell membrane permeability and can easily enter the cell. Calcein AM has no fluorescence and is hydrolyzed by endogenous esterase in the cell to produce polar molecule Calcein (Calcein), which has strong negative charge and cannot permeate the cell membrane. Calcein can emit strong green fluorescence, so it is often used with Propidium Iodide for cell viability/virulence detection, excitation/emission wavelength: 494/515 nm[1].Solvent and concentration: DMSO: 2 mM

Chemical Information

calcein AM

Calcein am is an organic heteropentacyclic compound that is calcein in which all four carboxy group hydrogens have been substituted by (acetyloxy)methoxy groups and the hyrodgens of the two hydroxy groups have been substituted by acetyl groups. It is a a non-fluorescent probe cleaved to a fluorescent probe by non-specific intracellular esterases. It has a role as a fluorochrome. It is a gamma-lactone, a xanthene dye, an oxaspiro compound, an organic heteropentacyclic compound, a member of 2-benzofurans and an acetate ester. It is functionally related to a calcein.
