Product Description
Liperfluo, a perylene derivative containing oligooxyethylene, is designed and exclusively developed by Dojindo for the detection of lipid peroxides. Liperfluo emits intense fluorescence by lipid peroxide specific oxidation in organic solvents such as ethanol. Among fluorescent probes that detect Reactive Oxygen Species(ROS), Liperfluo is the only compound that can specifically detect lipid peroxides. Since the excitation and emission wavelengths of the oxidized Liperfluo are 524 nm and 535 nm, respectively, photo-damage and auto-fluorescence from the sample can be minimized. The tetraethyleneglycol group linked to one end of diisoquinoline ring helps its solubility and dispersibility to aqueous buffer. Liperfluo's oxidized form is nearly nonfluorescent in an aqueous media and emits a strong fluorescence in lipophilic sites such as in cell membranes. Therefore it can easily be applied to lipid peroxide imaging by a fluorescence microscopy and a flow cytometric analysis for living cells. Liperfluo is used to monitor lipid peroxidation in ferroptosis research.

Necrosis, apoptosis and autophagy is known as cell death-related processes. In 2012, Ferroptosis was proposed as one of new cell deaths. Ferroptosis is studied as non apoptotic cell death caused by accumulation of iron ion-dependent lipid peroxide. Liperfluo is used as a fluorescent prove which can detect intracellular lipid peroxide directly.
