Description

Fluoresterol is a fluorescently labeled cholesterol analog that can be used as a fluorescent probe to study the behavior and metabolism of cholesterol in cells, including lipid uptake and esterification analysis, intracellular localization and targeting, and lipid metabolism in mammalian and bacterial cells. Fluoresterol has an excitation maximum at 472 nm and an emission maximum at 540 nm. Fluoresterol is expected to be useful in the study of metabolic diseases[1][2].
