Mannosylated Fluorescent Liposome DiR (CAT#: CLBD007LYm)

Description
Mannose receptor targeting by mannosylated liposomes has been demonstrated for a variety of mannosylated lipid conjugates in a variety of liposome morphologies and compositions in several different models. Mannosylated Fluorescent Liposome DiR incorporates a lipophilic dye inside its membrane, which is insoluble in water. Its fluorescence is easily detected when incorporated into membranes. DiR covers a wide range of excitation and emission wavelengths from 300s to 900s. DiR belongs to the dialkylcarbocyanines family of compounds. They have extremely high extinction coefficients, moderate fluorescence quantum yields and short excited state lifetimes in lipid environments (~1 ns).
