2-NBDG is a fluorescent tracer used for monitoring glucose uptake into living cells; it consists of a glucosamine molecule substituted with a 7-nitrobenzofurazan fluorophore at its amine group. It is widely referred to a fluorescent derivative of glucose,[1] and it is used in cell biology to visualize uptake of glucose by cells.[2] Cells that have taken up the compound fluoresce green.

2-NBDG is similar to radiolabeled glucose in that both can be used to detect glucose transport. Unlike radiolabeled glucose, 2-NBDG is compatible with fluorescence techniques such as a fluorescent microscopy, flow cytometry, and fluorimetry[2]

The compound is taken up by a variety of mammalian, plant, and microbial cells[2][3][4] In mammalian cells, one transporter for 2-NBDG is supposed to be GLUT2.,[5] but this has been recently challenged (see below). In bacterial cells, the predominant transporter is the mannose phosphotransferase system.[4] Cells that lack these or other compatible transporters do not take up 2-NBDG.[4][6]

Like glucose, 2-NBDG is transported according to Michaelis–Menten kinetics. However, transport of 2-NBDG has a lower Vmax (maximum rate), and thus the rate of transport is generally slower than glucose.[4]

Once taken up, the compound is metabolized to a non-fluorescent derivative, as shown in Escherichia coli.[7] The identity and further metabolism of this non-fluorescent derivative has not been established.

Three articles published between 2020 and 2022 indicate that the uptake of 2-NBDG is independent of Glut transporters and as such, it does not reflect true glucose intake like radiolabeled glucose would[8]
