Lumiflavine (Lumiflavin) is produced by the photolysis of vitamin B2 (Riboflavin). Lumiflavine, a riboflavin uptake inhibitor, is used to study riboflavin uptake in intestinal epithelial (Caco-2) and other epithelial cells. It acts as a fluorescent label for proteins and nucleic acids in biochemical assays and in microscopy.
