Used as a fluorescent dye in biochemical and medical research, it is particularly valuable for labeling and tracing biological molecules. Its fluorescence properties make it suitable for use in fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry to study cellular processes and interactions. Additionally, it serves as a substrate in enzymatic assays to detect enzyme activity, especially in hydrolytic enzymes. In material science, it is employed as a fluorescent marker in polymers and coatings to monitor distribution and degradation. Its bright blue fluorescence under UV light also makes it useful in optoelectronic applications and as a probe in environmental monitoring to detect pollutants.
