REACH registered substance: 3-oxospiro[isobenzofuran-1(3H),9'-[9H]xanthene]-3',6'-diyl diacetate (EC: 209-877-6)
Spiro[isobenzofuran-1(3H),9'-[9H]xanthen]-3-one, 3',6'-bis(acetyloxy)-: Does not have an individual approval but may be used under an appropriate group standard
DescriptionFluorescein diacetate (FDA) is a cell-permeant esterase substrate that can serve as a viability probe that measures both enzymatic activity, which is require to activate its fluorescence, and cell-membrane integrity, which is required for intracellular retention of their fluorescent product. Upon hydrolysis by intracellular esterases, this AM ester yields fluorescein.
UsesFluorescein diacetate is a non-fluorescent molecule, which is hydrolysed to fluorescent fluorescein in live cells. Dead cells cannot accumulate or hydrolyse FDA. It has been used for the differentiation of live cells from dead cells. It can be also used as a fluorogenic substrate for hGSTP1-1.
