PC/PS Lipid Microparticles, NBD are beads with attached phosphatidylcholine (PC), Phosphatidylserine (PS) and NBD. The headgroups are exposed and available for biological interactions. Phosphatidylserine (PS) is an anionic, intracellular phospholipid component of the cell membrane and is involved in cell signaling. PC is primarily an extracellular phospholipid of cell membranes and is a key structural lipid. This product is intended for use in apoptosis or phagocytosis studies.
Technical Notes
1. Total lipid concentration is approximately 1 μmol per 1 mg particles.
2. Trace amounts of a fluorescent lipid are embedded in the particles. NBD has maximal excitation/emission at approximately 460/540 nm.
3. Particle comprised of a silica core and is 3 µm.
