C12FDG (Synonyms: 5-Dodecanoylaminofluorescein di-β-D-Galactopyranoside) |
Catalog No.GC43021 |
C12FDG releases luciferin by enzymolysis of β-galactosidase, and the fluorescence of luciferin can be used to quantify the activity of β-galactosidase. The maximum excitation/emission of fluorescein is 485/530 nm.

C12FDG is the fluorescent substrate of β-galactosidase. By enzymolysis of β-galactosidase, fluorescein is released and its fluorescence can be used to quantify the activity of β-galactosidase. The excitation/emission maxima of fluorescein are 485/530 nm[1-3].
C12FDG(15 μM ; 2 h) staining can assess SA-β-Gal activity to detect senescence in THP-1 cells(15 μM ; 2 h) [4]and A172 cells(90 min; 33 µM) [5]. Live cell measurements of senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-Gal) activity using the fluorescent substrate C12FDG in combination with the determination of the total cell number using a DNA intercalating Hoechst dye opens the possibility to screen for senotherapeutic drugs [6].
