changes in the fluorescence excitation intensities of the
dye are correlated to the changes in the membrane potential
of the cell.

DiBAC4(3)
(bis-(1,3-dibarbituric acid)-trimethine oxanol) |
|
Description:
DiBAC 4(3) is a so-called translational membrane
potential dye that redistributes within the cell membrane
when membrane potential changes. 1,2 The
fluorescence of the dye is enhanced when the dye enters the
cell membrane as a result of membrane depolarization. The
rate of fluorescence response of the dye to membrane
potential change is usually slower than that of the styryl
dye di-4-ANEPPS, but the fluorescence signal change for the
former is significantly larger than for the latter dye. A
new and potentially very important application for DiBAC 4(3)
is its use in high throughput drug screening 3

Di-8-ANEPPS |
|
Description:
ANEPPS dyes are fast responding membrane potential dyes. 1
Biotium offers both Di-4-ANEPPS and Di-8-ANEPPS.
Di-4-ANEPPShas the problem of being internalized in cells
over long-term, so it is mainly used for short-term
experiments. However, because Di-8-ANEPPS is more
lipophilic, the dye is better retained in the outer leaflet
of cell plasma membranes and thus more suitable for
long-term membrane potential studies. Di-8-ANEPPS is also
more photostable and less phototoxic than Di-4-ANEPPS. 2,3

minimally. Thus, the transmembrane distribution of the dyes
is directly related to the membrane potential via Nernst
equation.
