Note
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.

Product Description
MQAE is a fluorescent chloride ion indicator that is more sensitive and selective than 36Cl and microelectrode-based methods for chloride measurement in cells. MQAE is a fluorescent indicator that is quenched via collision with chloride. 1-(Ethoxycarbonylmethyl)-6-methoxyquinolinium bromide, a fluorescent chloride indicator dye, may be used to measure intracellular and extracellular chloride concentrations.
This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alpha amino acid esters. These are ester derivatives of alpha amino acids.
