BODIPY-C12 Ceramide (d18:1/12:0)

SKU: orb1694000

Description

BODIPY-C12 Ceramide (B12Cer) is a fluorescent sphingolipid analog with excitation/emission maxima at 505/540 nm. It serves as a key substrate for measuring acid sphingomyelinase activity in diagnostic research, including studies of Niemann-Pick disease, and is used in both in vitro and live-cell imaging experiments to track lipid metabolism and trafficking.
