Liperfluo is a fluorescent probe for lipid peroxides.1,2 Upon reaction with lipid peroxides, Liperfluo is oxidized and displays an emission maximum of 500-550 nm upon excitation at 488 nm.1 It is selective for lipid peroxides over hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl radical, superoxide, nitric oxide, peroxynitrite, alkylperoxyl radical, and cumene hydroperoxide. Monitoring lipid peroxidation has high relevance to various cellular processes, especially ferroptosis, which is an iron-dependent cell death characterized by increased lipid peroxidation.3,4
