Calcein
Product Description
Calcein
Application Notes
Fluorometric determination of calcium and EDTA titration of calcium in the presence of magnesium. Calcein is used to determine the integrity and stability of free and sol-gel entrapped liposomes as well as to measure LLO pore formation, by entrappment inside the lumen of the liposomes. To study ultrasound induced drug uptake by the use of a fluorescent reporter molecule . To quantify the cellular uptake of low molecular weight fluorescent molecules due to transient enhancements of membrane permeability .
