BTC, tetrapotassium salt *CAS 216453-54-2*
This cell-impermeant coumarin Ca2+ indicator exhibits a shift in excitation maximum from about 480 nm to 400 nm upon binding Ca2+, enabling ratiometric calcium measurements. Due to its high selectivity and low affinity for Ca2+ (Kd ~7 uM) BTC is often used for the quantitation of high Ca2+levels.
