CFDA-SE is a stable, cell-permeable dye that consists of a fluorescein molecule containing two acetate moieties and a succinimidyl ester (SE) functional group.{17820} Upon diffusion into the intracellular environment, the acetate groups are cleaved by cellular esterases leaving CFSE (Item No. 16802), which is fluorescent and not cell permeable.{36590} CFSE covalently couples to intracellular molecules via its succinimidyl group and can be retained in cells for at least eight weeks.{36591} CFDA-SE is often used to assay cell proliferation as it is partitioned with high fidelity between daughter cells for up to eight generational divisions.{17820,17802,21243} CFSE, the cleavage product of CFDA-SE, displays excitation/emission maxima of 491/518 nm, respectively.{36591}
