Note
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour. Refer to SDS for further information Need more advice on solubility, usage and handling? Please visit our frequently asked questions (FAQ) page for more details.
Product Description
Eosin Y, a red xanthene dye, has been noted to reduce the affinity of Mg2+-ATPase for ATP and increase the enzyme affinity for Mg2+ at concentrations of 10-50 μM. At higher concentrations near 100 μM the affinity for Mg2+-ATPase for the ion-activator has been shown to be reduced. This compound has also been reported to be a photosensitizer that works as a molecular photoelectrode via catalyzation of the visible-light-driven electron-transfer reaction. Eosin Y has been used to stain structures such as muscle, cytoplasm, and collagen. This agent also enhances fluorescent quenching abilities by forming a complex with polyvinulpyrrolidone.
