Hi list

a user in our facility wants to visualise which cells take up/bind Hemin. The available Hemin antibody isn't working well, so we wonder if we could directly visualise hemin - we think it would emit some fluorescence itself.
My question is: has anyone done such a thing? And if yes, would be willing to share your set-up and expertise?

All the best

Leandro
