Xanthene fluorophores, like fluorescein, have been versatile molecules across diverse fields of chemistry and life sciences. Despite the ubiquity of 3-carboxy and 3-sulfonofluorescein for the last 150 years, to date, no reports of 3-phosphonofluorescein exist. Here, we report the synthesis

Since proposed by Piekarski and Munro in 1977, load-induced fluid flow through the bone lacunar-canalicular system (LCS) has been accepted as critical for bone metabolism, mechanotransduction, and adaptation. However, direct unequivocal observation and quantification of load-induced fluid and solute convection

Questions

  1. For Fluorescein sodium salt 46960, is there a fluorescence value for a positive PCR sample, and how would this value translate as a concentration of this powder?

    1 answer
    1. Sybr Green and Fluorescein sodium salt are both green dyes, and although their spectral ranges are close, it is important to consider their specific uses and characteristics. While Sybr Green is a popular dye for molecular use, Fluorescein sodium salt is a very economical product and may be useful for specific applications. However, there is no information comparing the two dyes for use in PCR.
