8- (2,4,6-Trimethylphenyl) -BODIPY

This highly fluorescent BODIPY dye (λabs 502 nm, λem 516 nm) serves as an effective photosensitizer and a versatile synthetic building block for other BODIPY-based agents. It is widely used in research for photodynamic therapy, bioimaging, and as a molecular probe in both in vitro and in vivo studies.
