EClass:
32160000
Form (Short):
liquid
Handling Advice:
Protect from light and moisture.
InChi:
InChI=1S/C24H35NO/c1-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-24(26)22-15-14-21-19-23(25(2)3)17-16-20(21)18-22/h14-19H,4-13H2,1-3H3
InChiKey:
JHDGGIDITFLRJY-UHFFFAOYSA-N
Long Description:
Chemical. CAS: 74515-25-6. Formula: C24H35NO. MW: 353.54. Synthetic. N,N-Dimethyl-6-dodecanoyl-2-naphthylamine (Laurdan) is used as an environmentally sensitive probe for the labeling of plasma membranes. The lauroyl-sidechain integrates into the hydrophobic core of biological membranes, the polar fluorescent moiety is at level of the glycerol-backbone. Dipolar relaxation processes of the naphtylamine-moiety with neighboring polar molecules lead to wavelength-shifts of the emission-spectra. The physical state of the membrane and effects of temperature, cholesterol or ethanol on various membrane-systems have been monitored.
