Fura-2, Pentasodium Salt, CAS 96314-98-6

Description: Fura-2, pentasodium salt is a ratiometric fluorescent dye that binds to free intracellular calcium. It is membrane-impermeant and may be loaded into cells via microinjection or scrape loading.    A major use of Fura-2 is in drug discovery, for measuring intracellular calcium mobilization after activation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and calcium channels. Upon calcium binding, the fluorescent excitation maximum of the indicator undergoes a blue shift from 363 nm (Ca²-free) to 335 nm (Ca²-saturated), while the fluorescence emission maximum is relatively unchanged at ~510 nm.
