Here, we designed and synthesized a lipophilic, biotin-linked Sudan Black B (SBB) analogue suitable for sensitive and specific, antibody-enhanced detection of lipofuscin-containing senescent cells in any biological material. This new hybrid histo-/immunochemical method is easy to perform, reliable, and universally applicable to assess senescence in biomedicine, from cancer research to gerontology.engVoRhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Sudan Black BAgingBiotin‐linked compoundsImmunohistochemistrySenescenceAnimalsBiological AssayBiomarkersBiotinCell Line, TumorHumansMiceCellular SenescenceRobust, universal biomarker assay to detect senescent cells in biological specimensAtribución 4.0 Internacional28165661161192-19710.1111/acel.125451474-9726Aging cellopen access
