Notes: A fluorescent probe for the detection of amyloids; pH-dependent ex/em maxima = 370/450 nm, respectively, at pH 8.5; pH-dependent ex/em maxima = 420/520 nm, respectively, at pH 10.5; demonstrates increased fluorescence intensity in the presence of Aß40 fibrils; displays fiber-dependent excitation/emission maxima for silk moth (B. mori) silk, Chilean rose tarantula (G. rosea) web, and 5XFAD mouse brain amyloid fibers; has been used to detect amyloid plaques in postmortem hippocampus from patients with Alzheimer's disease.
