BODIPY FL C5-Ceramide

Description

The Golgi apparatus is composed of flattened vesicles superimposed on each other by unit membranes. The flattened vesicles are round with expanded and perforated edges. The Golgi fluorescent probe is a BODIPY-labeled ceramide derivative, the synthesis of which occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum and can then be transported to the Golgi via ceramide transport protein CERT or vesicular translocation, allowing specific labeling of the dye. BODIPY Fl C5-Ceramide is a Golgi-specific green fluorescent dye, which can visualise individual cells. Ex/Em= 505 nm/512 nm.
