Product Description: 5-Dodecanoylaminofluorescein, a lipophilic fluorescent probe, is a free-fatty-acid conjugate of fluorescein. 5-Dodecanoylaminofluorescein has been used in membrane fluidity studies and the determination of critical micelle concentration of detergents. 5-Dodecanoylaminofluorescein can be also used to synthesize hydrophobic nanospheres for drug delivery[1][2][3].
Formula: C32H35NO6
