Storage The dried product should be stored in air-tight containers at ambient temperatures in the dark. A shelf-life of 5 years is proposed. No release of fluorescent material was noted when a solution of the product was incubated at pH 7.5 at 37°C for one month.
Application Tetramethyl-rhodamine hyaluronic acid (TR-HA) has similar applications to those described for fluorescein hyaluronic acid but has certain advantages. As mentioned earlier, the fluorescence of tetramethylrhodamine is less dependent on pH than FITC-labels. Also the longer emission wavelength avoids interference from background images in experimental environments. Invasive growth into brain tissue employing TR-HA and 2-photon imaging has been described.
