Nile Red is a strongly fluorescent stain in the presence of a hydrophobic environment for the detection of intracellular lipid droplets. Nile red exhibits strong fluorescence in non-polar environments, while its fluorescence is weaker in hydrophilic polar environments. Nile red is commonly employed as a specific fluorescent dye for lipids and lipid droplets. The fluorescence excitation and emission wavelengths of Nile red are 559/635 nm respectively.
