Ethylene Glycol-Bis-(Β-Amino-Ethylether)-N,N,N′,N′-Tetraacetic Acid

Application Notes

Ethylene Glycol-bis-(beta-aminoethylether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic Acid is a chelating agent for determination of calcium in the presence of magnesium; it can also detect cadmium in the presence of zinc. It is also useful for the removal of heavy metal ions in biological systems. It is shown to activate Ca2+- stimulated ATPase in rat liver plasma membranes and induce apoptosis in PC12 cells.
