Notes: CGamF is a fluorescent probe for hepatic bile acid transport that is composed of cholic acid (Item No. 20250) conjugated via a glycylamino linkage to fluorescein.{51877,51879} It displays excitation/emission values of 492/515 nm, respectively, in aqueous solution at pH 7.4.{51879} CGamF fluorescence intensity increases as pH increases upon excitation at 495 nm but is pH-independent upon excitation at 440 nm. CGamF uptake by hepatocytes becomes sodium-dependent as CGamF concentration increases, with lower sodium levels resulting in reduced uptake.{51877,51879} CGamF has been used in the study of hepatic transporter-mediated drug interactions and toxicity in vitro.{51880,41878}
