Fluorescein diacetate (FDA) is a cell-permeable esterase substrate that can be used as a viability probe, measuring both the enzymatic activity required to activate its fluorescence and the integrity of the cell membrane required for the intracellular retention of its fluorescent product. Upon hydrolysis by intracellular esterases, this AM ester yields fluorescein.
