Fluo-2, potassium salt
Calcium measurement is critical for numerous biological investigations. Fluorescent probes that show spectral responses upon binding calcium have enabled researchers to investigate changes in intracellular free calcium concentrations by using fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, fluorescence spectroscopy and fluorescence microplate readers. Fluo-2 is the parent compound of Fluo-3 and Fluo-4. These fluorescent calcium indicators have calcium-dependent fluorescence.
