Because it is based on non-toxic pH-sensitive nanoparticles, CelLuminate™ Red can exploit the natural cellular endocytic pathways to deliver rhodamine-loaded fluorophores vesicles within the cell cytosol – without affecting the cell’s metabolic activity.
CelLuminate Red is non-toxic and non-inflammatory to a wide range of cells, even over extended time periods, as shown below.
