Product Description: X-34 is a lipophilic and bright yellow-green fluorescent derivative of Congo red (HY-D0236). X-34 can be used to stain neuritic and diffuse plaques, neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), neuropil threads, and cerebrovascular amyloid in the brain. X-34 can be used for research of Alzheimer’s disease[1].
Applications: Neuroscience-Neurodegeneration
Formula: C24H18O6
