DAF-FM is an important reagent for quantitating low concentrations of nitric oxide in solution. This compound is essentially nonfluorescent until it reacts with NO to form a fluorescent benzotrizole. With excitation/emission maxima of 495/515 nm and a dectection limit of 3 nM, DAF-FM can be detected using any instrument that can be used to detect fluorescein. It is more photo-stable and less pH sensitive than DAF-2.
