HYDROP and HYDROP-EX, New Fluorescent Reagents to Detect and Measure Hydrogen Peroxide

Hydrogen peroxide, or H2O2, is formed in human and animals and is toxic to cells. H2O2 has implications in many biological processes and its amount in biological systems can be assayed using the fluorogenic compound HYDROP.

GÖTTINGEN, Germany - May 30, 2018 - PRLog -- HYDROP is a fluorescent probe for specific detection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). It has low reactivity with other reactive oxygen species (ROS). While HYDROP is used for live-cell imaging, HYDROP-EX is for detection and quantification of hydrogen peroxide in solutions. HYDROP and HYDROP-EX are manufactured by Goryo Chemical, Japan, and distributed in Germany and other European countries by MoBiTec GmbH.

Features

• It fluoresces upon reaction with H2O2, but does not react with other ROS such as hydroxyradical (OH), superoxide (O2-・), hypochlorous acid (HOCl), singlet oxygen (1O2), and nitric oxide (NO).

• Cell-permeable HYDROP is a diacetylated form of HYDROP-EX. Initially, HYDROP has low reactivity with H2O2 but it is quickly hydrolyzed by intracellular esterases to generate reactive and cell-impermeable HYDROP-EX. Thus, generated HYDROP-EX remains within a cell and fluoresces upon reaction with H2O2.

Specifications

Excitation max: 492 nm
Emission max: 516 nm
Photo stability: low
Brightnes: high
