Calcein sodium salt
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Calcein sodium is a fluorescent dye and self-quenching probe, used as an indicator of lipid vesicle leakage, and also as a complexometric indicator for titration of calcium ions with EDTA, and for fluorometric determination of calcium. Calcein cannot directly cross the intact cell membrane of a living cell, unlike Calcein-AM (HY-D0041) which is cell-permeable. Calcein can also be used as a model drug for evaluating efficiency and bioavailability of drug delivery systems.

Activité biologique
Description: Calcein is a fluorescent probe with yellow green fluorescence, it can be used to determine labile iron pool and measure the Fe(III)-binding affinity with ligands[3].
1. Solution preparation[3]
1.1 Preparation of stock solution
Solvent: 1 M NaOH
Concentration: 0.5 mM (optimized according to the experiment).
Storage: Store at -20°C or -80°C in dark after aliquoting. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
1.2 Preparation of working solution
Dilute to 0.5 µM with PBS or cell culture medium.
Note: The working solution should be prepared and used immediately. Keep it away from light.
2. Cell staining
2.1 Cells (106/mL) are loaded by incubation with 20 µM Fe(II) for 2 h at 37°C.
2.2 Cells are collected by centrifugation (1000 rpm; 5 min) and Calcein (0.5 µM) is directly injected into the cells via microinjection for staining (5-15 mins).
2.3 Wash cells for twice by D’hanks buffer (pH 7.4).
2.4 The fluorescence is monitored by both flow cytometry and a confocal laser scanning microscope.
