Description

4-Diethylamino-2-methoxybenzaldehyde (4DMMB) is a protonated molecule that is able to penetrate the mitochondrial membrane due to its low charge. Once inside, 4DMMB can be reduced by electron transfer from the mitochondria's membrane potential. This reduction leads to an increase in the mitochondrial membrane potential and subsequent photophysical emissions. The introduction of 4DMMB has been shown to cause mitochondrial membrane potential changes in cells, which may lead to pathophysiologic conditions such as cancer.
