Description: Sodium channels conduct sodium ions (Na+) through a cell's plasma membrane that are the source of excitatory currents for the nervous system and muscle. Na channels are classified according to the trigger that opens the channel for such ions, i.e. either a voltage-change (Voltage-gated, voltage-sensitive, or voltage-dependent sodium channel also called VGSCs or Nav channel) or a binding of a substance (a ligand) to the channel (ligand-gated sodium channels). Dysfunction in voltage-gated sodium channels correlates with neurological and cardiac diseases, including epilepsy, myopathies, pain and cardiac arrhythmias. Sodium channel blockers are used in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmia, pain and convulsion.

Layout: 96-well storage tube or 96-well plate: 1st and 12th column are left empty.384-well plate: the first two columns and the last two columns are left empty.Compounds with different concentrations or dissolved in different solvents will be put on separate plates.This way of layout may increase the number of plates because there could be three solvents and three concentrations. If you have other requirements, please let us know.
