MitoSOXTM is a fluorescent dye design to target mitochondria in live cells for the detection of anion superoxide (O2-°). The oxidation of the compund by O2-° is easily detected in the red spectrum, being selective for O2-° but not for other Reactive oxygen species or Reactive nitrogen species.
• Readily oxidized by superoxide but not by other ROS- or RNS-generating systems • Absorption/emission maxima: ~510/580 nm • Use for live cell imaging • Rapidly and selectively targeted to the mitochondria
