JC-1 is a fluorescent lipophilic carbocyanine dye. It has been used to measure mitochondrial membrane potential.?JC 1 can be used in a probe for measuring mitochondrial membrane potential by flow cytometry. JC-1 fluorescence is usually excited by the 488?nm laser wavelength common in flow cytometers. JC-1 (2.5?μM) exposed to murine L1210 lymphoblasts, can be detected the presence of both cytoplasmic JC-1 monomer and mitochondrial J-aggregates in these cells.

Ganodermanontriol, a sterol derived from Ganoderma lucidum, showcases hepatoprotective activity and possesses anti-inflammatory properties in tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP)-damaged hepatic cells through the upregulation of HO-1 expression.

Dansyl chloride reacts with primary amino groups in both aliphatic and aromatic amines to produce stable blue- or blue-green-fluorescent sulfonamide adducts. It is widely used to modify amino acids, specifically, protein sequencing and amino acid analysis.
