Description
Labeled calcium indicators are molecules that exhibit increase in fluorescence upon binding Ca2+. They have uses in many calcium signaling investigations, including measuring intracellular Ca2+, following Ca2+ influx and release, and multiphoton excitation imaging of Ca2+ in living tissues.
- Fluorescence signal from these cells is generally measured using fluorescence microscopy, fluorescence microplate assays, or flow cytometry
- Label (Ex/Em): Oregon Green 488 BAPTA-1 (494/523nm)
- Fluorescence intensity increase upon binding Ca2+: approximately 14 fold
- Exhibit fluorescence increase upon binding Ca2+ with little shift in wavelength
- These probes are excited by visible light, and because energy required for excitation is low, potential for cellular photodamage is reduced
- Commonly used laser-based instruments (i.e., confocal laser scanning microscopes) are able to efficiently excite these indicators, and their emissions are in regions of spectrum where cellular autofluorescence and scattering backgrounds are often less of problem
