BODIPY-Cholesterol (solution)
BODIPY-cholesterol (solution) is an intrinsically lipophilic, and cell-permeable analog of cholesterol with a fluorescent BODIPY group. BODIPY-cholesterol can be used to monitor sterol uptake and inter-organelle sterol flux in cells. (Excitation/Emission: 505/515 nm) [1].Solvent and concentration: DMSO: 1 mM
