Beschreibung

Fluorescein isothiocyanate dextran is primarily used for studying permeability and transport in cells and tissues. An added benefit is that measurements of fluorescence provide quantitative data on the permeability of healthy and diseased tissues. Such studies can be performed in real time by intravital fluorescence microscopy. The technique offers high sensitivity and concentrations down to 1µg/ml can be detected in tissue fluids. FITC-dextrans have also been used as a pH probe in cells. It may also be noted from polarisation experiments that the rotational freedom of fluorescein conjugated to dextran remains high and fluorescent lifetime of the excited state is similar to that before conjugation.
