Calcium green and [[Magnesium green]] share the same fluorophore moiety in their molecular structure, therefore the optical properties are very similar and the same fluorescence sensor and filter set can be used. Since the used concentration of Calcium green might vary according to application, the optimum light intensity and amplification used may be different to those for Magnesium green. However, the values recommended for Magnesium green will provide a good starting point.

Calcium Green

Description

Calcium green belongs to the extrinsic fluorophores applied for measurement of Ca2+ concentration (KD = 190 nM.

Abbreviation: CaG


MitoPedia methods: Fluorometry 



Calcium greenTM is a registered trademark and available from Invitrogen in several formulations.

Measurement: see O2k-Fluorescence LED2-Module Calcium green and Magnesium green share the same fluorophore moiety in their molecular structure, therefore the optical properties are very similar and the same fluorescence sensor and filter set can be used. Since the used concentration of Calcium green might vary according to application, the optimum light intensity and amplification used may be different to those for Magnesium green.
