Prodan (Cat No.:R055997) is a fluorescent dye widely used as a polarity-sensitive molecular probe. With strong environment-dependent fluorescence, it is ideal for studying membrane dynamics, protein-lipid interactions, and solvent microenvironments. Prodan integrates into biological membranes, shifting its emission spectra based on local polarity, enabling precise monitoring of structural changes and phase transitions. It is a small, hydrophobic molecule with high quantum yield and photostability, making it suitable for fluorescence microscopy, spectroscopy, and biophysical assays. Prodan is essential in investigating biological membranes and molecular organization in complex systems.
