Rhodamine 6G (R6 G) is a lipophilic fluorescent cationic dye mainly used to detect the mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψ m) of cultured cells and isolated mitochondria[1]. Rhodamine dye is a cell-permeable fluorescent probe that specifically recognizes mitochondrial membrane potential and thus accumulates in mitochondria. Rhodamine dye has low toxicity to cells at a certain concentration, so it is often used to detect mitochondria in animal cells, plant cells, and microorganisms[2].
