2 7 dichlorofluorescein diacetate h2dcf da

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

2',7'-dichlorofluorescein diacetate (H2DCF-DA) is a fluorogenic compound used as an indicator for the detection of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in biological systems. It is a non-fluorescent, cell-permeable compound that undergoes hydrolysis by intracellular esterases, resulting in the formation of 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein (DCF), a highly fluorescent molecule. The intensity of the DCF fluorescence is proportional to the level of ROS present in the sample.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For fluorescence microscopy, NO and H2O2 were visualized using Diaminofluorescein-FM diacetate (DAF-FM-DA) and 2′,7′-dichlorofluorescein diacetate (H2DCF-DA) probes, respectively (Sigma-Aldrich). Briefly, leaf dices were first loaded with 15 μM DAF-FM-DA for 30 min or 50 μM H2DCF-DA for 10 min in Tris/KCl loading buffer (pH 7.2). The process was performed in darkness at 25 °C. Further, leaves were washed three times (5 min each) using Tris/KCl loading buffer (10 mM Tris and 50 mM KCl, pH 7.2), and visualized under a TE2000-U fluorescence microscope (490 nm excitation; 515 nm emission) (Nikon, Tokyo, Japan). Treatments were repeated at least five times. NO and H2O2 contents were also detected using a Griess reagent (Sigma-Aldrich) and an Amplex red hydrogen peroxide/peroxidase assay kit (Invitrogen), respectively [33 (link)].

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
