Description

Other names: Br-BDP-thiethoxysilane. (3-Aminopropyl)-triethoxysilane modified bromo-tetramethylborondipyrromethenebenzoyl fluorophore.

Can be used for attachment of a fluorescent probe through covalent binding to smart materials or biological objects.

Surfaces containing APTES-functionality have been shown to be nontoxic to embrionic rat cardiomyocytes in vitro.
