Bodipy C12-ceramide

• UNSPSC Description:

  Bodipy C12-ceramide (B12Cer) is a fluorescently tagged form of C12-Ceramide (HY-100353) that displays excitation/emission maxima of 505/540 nm, respectively. Bodipy C12-ceramide is formed when acid sphingomyelinase hydrolyzes BODIPY-C12 sphingomyelin in vitro and has been used to quantify acid sphingomyelinase activity in plasma with Niemann-Pick disease[1].
