A new ceramide analog, 1, containing two fluorescent dyes, NBD in the N-acyl part and KFL5 in the alkyl part, was synthesized. The fluorescence from both NBD and KFL5 was detected in living cells in a time-dependent manner. A multi-wavelength fluorescence detector was used to detect ceramide metabolites including sphingosine, sphingosine-l-phosphate, glucosylceramide, and sphingomyelin, which are connected to the fluorescent dyes, simultaneously in a single TLC plate.
