Resorufin Oleate

RT

477, 63

Orange solid

Fluorogenic substrate with red emission for use in detection of intracellular and in vitro lipase activity. Upon activity by the enzyme, the red fluorescent dye resorufin is released which has a low pKa for optimum emission readings at low pH values. The red fluorophore resorufin exhibits an absorption maximum at 571nm with emission at 585nm upon enzyme reaction.
