Synonyms: Nile Blue A Oxazone; 9-(diethylamino)-5H-benzo[a]phenoxazin-5-one Cas No. 7385-67-3 Molecular Weight: 318.37 Description: Nile Red is a synthetic dye that is widely used in biological and chemical research. It is particularly useful for staining lipids and lipid-containing structures within cells due to its strong fluorescence properties. Nile Red is typically used in fluorescence microscopy to visualize lipids, especially in live or fixed cells. The dye has a distinctive red fluorescence when bound to hydrophobic environments, making it a valuable tool in studies of cellular lipid metabolism, lipid droplets, and membrane dynamics.
