Used as a fluorescent probe in biological and chemical research due to its strong fluorescence properties. It is particularly effective in imaging applications, where it helps visualize cellular structures and monitor dynamic processes within living cells. Its solubility in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) makes it suitable for stock solution preparation in various assays. Commonly applied in fluorescence microscopy and spectroscopy for studying membrane dynamics, protein interactions, and intracellular environments. Also utilized in the development and calibration of fluorescence-based detection systems.
