Use of BODIPY (493/503) to Visualize Intramuscular Lipid Droplets in Skeletal Muscle
Triglyceride storage is altered across various chronic health conditions necessitating various techniques to visualize and quantify lipid droplets (LDs). Here, we describe the utilization of the BODIPY (493/503) dye in skeletal muscle as a means to analyze LDs. We found that the dye was a convenient...
