rhod2 am

Rhod-2 AM is a fluorescent probe of the mitochondrion with λex of 552 nm and λem of 581 nm.

Fura-2 AM is an indicator of ratiometric fluorescent Ca2+.

Rhod-2 (potassium salt) is a water-soluble, red fluorescent calcium indicator. It exhibits a significant shift in fluorescence intensity upon calcium binding (ex max = 549 nm; calcium-free v. ex/em max = 552/581 nm; calcium-bound). Unlike the UV-excitable indicators fura-2 and indo-1 , there is no accompanying spectral shift.

Rhod-FF AM is a cell-permeant acetoxymethyl ester of the fluorescent calcium indicator rhod-FF . As rhod-FF AM enters cells, it is hydrolyzed by intracellular esterases to produce rhod-FF. Rhod-FF is a difluorinated analog of the cell-impermeant calcium indicator rhod-2. It has a very low affinity for calcium (Kd = 320 μM). Low affinity calcium indicators are particularly useful for studying compartments with high concentrations of calcium, such as endoplasmic reticulum, where high affinity dyes will be insensitive to luminal fluctuations. Rhod-FF has excitation/emission maxima of approximately 552 and 580 nm, respectively.

Rhod-2 (sodium salt) is a water-soluble, red fluorescent calcium indicator. It exhibits a significant shift in fluorescence intensity upon calcium binding (ex max = 549 nm; calcium-free v. ex/em max = 552/581 nm; calcium-bound). [1][2] Unlike the UV-excitable indicators fura-2 and indo-1 , there is no accompanying spectral shift.

Rhod-5N AM is a cell-permeant acetoxymethyl ester of the fluorescent calcium indicator rhod-5N . As rhod-5N AM enters cells, it is hydrolyzed by intracellular esterases to produce rhod-5N. Rhod-5N displays a low affinity for calcium (Kd = 19 μM). Low affinity calcium indicators are particularly useful for studying compartments with high concentrations of calcium, such as endoplasmic reticulum, where high affinity dyes will be insensitive to luminal fluctuations. Rhod-5N has excitation/emission maxima of approximately 551 and 576 nm, respectively.

Mag-Fura-2 AM, a cell-permeable fluorescent compound, serves as a selective indicator for magnesium ions (Mg2+), demonstrating significant preference for Mg2+ over other bivalent ions including zinc (Zn2+), copper (Cu2+), and calcium (Ca2+). It notably exhibits over 13,000-fold greater selectivity for Mg2+ compared to Ca2+ (Mg2+Kd = 1.9 nM vs. Ca2+Kd = 25 μM). The excitation and emission peak wavelengths are 369 nm and 511 nm, respectively. Further, Mag-Fura-2 AM is utilized as an indirect measure of ATP consumption or production due to its magnesium ion sensitivity.

ING-2 AM is a membrane-permeable fluorescent indicator specifically designed for sodium ions (Na+), exhibiting a binding affinity with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 20 mM. With excitation and emission maxima (λ) at 525 nm and 545 nm respectively, this compound achieves a 20-fold selectivity over potassium ions (K+). It is utilized both in vitro and in situ to monitor real-time sodium influx.
