General description
Fluorescein O-methacrylate is a pH sensitive dye
with a fluorescent monomer. It can be characterized by an excitation spectra at
490 nm and an emission spectra at 520 nm. It has fluorescein that acts as an
indicator with the least negative charges. Its properties include
biocompatibility, non-toxicity and good dispersion in aqueous solution.[1][2]
Application
Fluorescein O-methacrylate can be used as a
marker that can be incorporated into the nanoparticle complexes for biological
applications.[1] It forms environmentally responsive materials that can be
used as probes for cellular imaging.[3]
