Fluorescent Dyes
Fluorescent dyes in bioscience research are actively utilized as they provide higher sensitivity for visualizing biomolecules such as proteins and DNA. The dyes are classified according to their structure: fluoresceins, rhodamines, coumarins, pyrenes, cyanines, etc. This section includes precursors of fluorescent dyes which are converted in vivo to fluorescence-emitting compounds (e.g. fluorescein diacetate) and which emit fluorescence after conjugation with specific molecules (e.g. ethidium bromide).
