Zinpyr-1 is a cell-permeable fluorescent probe that is selective for Zinc. It induces positive fluorescence upon metal ion complexation. The fluorescence maximum wavelength is Em. λ = 527 nm. Zinpyr-1 experiences a shift in excitation from 515 to 507 nm, with increasing zinc concentrations using an emission filter over 513 - 558 nm. It mainly stains the Golgi or a Golgi-associated vesicle and can also act as a PET sensor.

From this page, the emission maxima of zinpyr-1 is 515 nm. But other articles showed the emission maxima of zinpyr-1 is within 525~530 nm. Do you know articles which shows the emission maxima of zinpyr-1 is 515 nm?

Asked by: Kouhei
Thank you for your question. We have reviewed our product information and are now updating the λem to 527. We can not provide any literature reference for the previously listed 515 nm.

I tried dissolving the compound to 2.5 mmol (2.5 ml DMSO and 5 mg material) but cannot get it into solution. Do you have recommendations on DMSO as the solvent?

Asked by: two2igm05
Thank you for your question. ZP-1 is soluble in the organic solvent dimethyl formamide (DMF), which should be purged with an inert gas. The solubility of ZP-1 in DMF is approximately 0.5 mg/ml. ZP-1 is sparingly soluble in aqueous solutions. To enhance aqueous solubility, dilute the organic solvent solution into aqueous buffers or isotonic saline. If performing biological experiments, ensure the residual amount of organic solvent is insignificant, since organic solvents may have physiological effects at low concentrations. We do not recommend storing the aqueous solution for more than one day. If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact our Technical Service department by calling 800-457-3801 option 2, emailing scbt@scbt.com, or using the Live Chat function on our website.
