Description

5(6)-Carboxyfluorescein contains a carboxylic acid that can be used to react with primary amines via carbodiimide activation of the carboxylic acid; cell-impermeant 5,6-FAM can also be used as a nonfixable polar tracer to investigate fusion, lysis and gap-junctional communication and to detect changes in cell or liposome volume.


5(6)-carboxyfluorescein is a commercially available mixture of 5-carboxyfluorescein and 6-carboxyfluorescein isomers. A fluorescent dye, it is commonly used as a tracer agent. It has a role as a tracer and a fluorescent dye. It contains a 5-carboxyfluorescein and a 6-carboxyfluorescein.

Drug Information

Chemicals that emit light after excitation by light. The wave length of the emitted light is usually longer than that of the incident light. Fluorochromes are substances that cause fluorescence in other substances, i.e., dyes used to mark or label other compounds with fluorescent tags. (See all compounds classified as Fluorescent Dyes.)
