OG488 BAPTA-1, hexapotassium salt [equivalent to Oregon Green® 488 BAPTA-1, hexapotassium salt] *Cell impermeant*

OG488 BAPTA -1 is the same molecule of Oregon Green 488 BAPTA-1. It is a visible light-excitable calcium indicator that is often used with FITC filter set. OG 488 BAPTA-1 has excitation and emission at 494 and 523 nm respectively. Its fluorescence intensity increases by ~14 fold upon binding calcium ion. This water-soluble, salt form is useful for intracellular loading by microinjection or infusion from patch pipette. The cell-permeant AM ester form of the indicator is also available (#20507).
