| Description | FFN270 hydrochloride, a fluorescent tracer for norepinephrine and vesicular monoamine transporters, features dual resolved absorption/excitation peaks that vary with solvent pH (FFN270 ex: 320 nm or 365 nm, em: 475 nm). It serves as a ratiometric fluorescent pH-sensor, highlighting its utility in monitoring norepinephrine. |
| In vitro | FFN270 enables both an examination of noradrenergic microanatomy and an observation of synaptic activity in the cortex of intact neuronal circuits in vivo[1]. |
