Used as a fluorescent probe in biochemical and analytical applications due to its ability to bind with metal ions, especially aluminum and zinc, enhancing fluorescence intensity. Commonly applied in the detection and quantification of these metals in environmental and biological samples. Also utilized in studies involving antioxidant activity and free radical scavenging due to its flavonoid structure. Employed in histology and microscopy as a staining agent for detecting calcium ions in tissues. Shows potential in pharmaceutical research for its anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties.
