Normalized emission spectra of Cal-520™ (Green), Cal-590™ (Orange) and Cal-630™ (Red).
Left: Fluorescence emission spectra of Cal-630™ in solutions containing 0 to 39 µM free Ca2+. Right: ATP-stimulated calcium response of endogenous P2Y receptor in CHO-K1 cells measured with Cal-630™ AM (Cat# 20530). CHO-K1 cells were seeded overnight at the cell density of 50,000 cells per 100 µL per well in a 96-well black wall/clear bottom plate. 100 µL of 10 µg/mL Cal-630™ AM with 2.0 mM probenecid was added into the cells, and the cells were incubated at 37 °C for 2 hours. ATP (50 µL/well) was added by FlexStation® (Molecular Devices) to achieve the final indicated concentrations.
Responses of endogenous P2Y receptor to ATP in CHO-K1 cells. CHO-K1 cells were seeded overnight at 40,000 cells per 100 µL per well in a 96-well black wall/clear bottom plate. 100 µL of 4 µM Cal-630™ AM (Cat# 20530) in HHBS with 1 mM probenecid were added into the wells, and the cells were incubated at 37 °C for 2 hours. The dye loading mediums were replaced with 100 µL HHBS and 1 mM probenecid, then imaged with a fluorescence microscope (Olympus IX71) using TRITC channel before and after adding 50 µL of 300 µM ATP.
