DiI

DiL is a lipophilic carbocyanine dye often used in fluorescence microscopy to label the cell surface, trace neuronal axons or, upon fixation, any lipid bound compartment. This probe has an excitation peak at 549 nm and an emission peak at 567 nm see less DiL is a lipophilic carbocyanine dye often used in fluorescence microscopy to label the cell surface, trace neuronal axons or, upon fixation, any lipid bound compartment.
