Product Information

• Name: 2,3,3-Trimethyl 5-methoxy indolenine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2,3,3-Trimethyl 5-methoxy indolenine (TMMI) is a fluorescent probe that has been used in photodynamic therapy. TMMI is chemically stable and has an unsymmetrical heterocycle with optical properties that allow it to be excited by green light at wavelengths of 540 nm. TMMI can be used to image hypoxic regions of the brain. This molecule has also been used as an enhancement agent for neovascularization and angiography. TMMI can be synthesized using mesoporous silica nanoparticles and halogens such as chlorine or bromine.
