Biological Activity for Indo 1AM

Indo 1AM is a fluorescent Ca²⁺ indicator (K_d for Ca²⁺ = 250 nM). Cell-permeable. Displays ratiometric emission wavelength change upon Ca²⁺ binding. Excitation/emission λ are 355/475 nm for no Ca2+ and 355/401 nm for high Ca²⁺. Absorption maxima are 349 and 331 nm for free anion and Ca complex, respectively. Respective emission maxima are 485 and 410 nm. Quantum yield ~0.5. Ideal for flow cytometry..

This product is typically prepared in DMSO.
