Carbocyanine dyes, particularly thiacyanines such as DiSC3(3) can inhibit respiration and may therefore be relatively cytotoxic. 3,3'-dipropyl-thiadicarbocyanine iodide is sensitive to membrane potential, fluorescence response to depolarization depends on the staining concentration and detection method.
Selected applications are:
-Calcium channels and other ion transport systems
-Mitochondrial activity
-Neurons and brain tissue
-Membrane potential in intact yeast cells
