Description

General description

Iron (Fe2+) is an essential element for blood production. About 70 percent of your body′s iron is found in the red blood cells of your blood called hemoglobin and in muscle cells called myoglobin. Iron is an essential metal for living organisms, but dysregulation of its homeostasis at the cellular level can trigger detrimental oxidative and/or nitrosative stress and damage events.

The BioTracker 575 Red Fe2+ Dye is a fluorescent imaging probe for the detection of iron (II) in living cells. This probe is localized in Golgi, and reacts selectively with Fe2+.
