General description

Resorufin pentyl ether is an analog of resazurin. Resorufin is a redox probe which is colorless and non-fluorescent in its reduced state. On oxidation, it fluoresces red. Resorufin is used widely as an indicator in microbiological media. It can be used to differentiate between actively metabolizing cells and inactive or dead cells.

Application

Resorufin pentyl ether has been used as a substrate to study the effects of Kaempferia parviflora extract on mouse hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Fluorimetric substrate for cytochrome P450 linked enzymes, CYP2B and CYP2B4.

Cell motility and the cytoskeleton, 48(3), 175-189 (2001-02-27)
Cultured rat hepatocytes self-assemble into three-dimensional structures or spheroids that exhibit ultrastructural characteristics of native hepatic tissue and enhanced liver-specific functions. The spheroid formation process involves cell translocation and changes in cell shape, indicative of the reorganization of the cytoskeletal
