Dibemethine(CAT: M070548) is a synthetic cyanine dye belonging to the polymethine class, characterized by a conjugated chain linking two nitrogen-containing heterocycles. It is primarily used as a fluorescent probe and spectral sensitizer in biochemical assays, imaging, and photodynamic research. Dibemethine exhibits strong absorption and fluorescence in the visible to near-infrared range, making it valuable for tracking molecular interactions, staining nucleic acids, and enhancing contrast in cell imaging. Its photophysical properties—such as high molar absorptivity and tunable emission—enable sensitive detection in diagnostic applications. Additionally, it serves as a core structure for developing advanced dyes in biosensor and optoelectronic technologies.
