Datasheet of BAPTA/AM(BAPTA-AM)
Description: BAPTA/AM is a membrane permeable form of BAPTA, a selective chelator of Ca2+.Whereas the BAPTA, Free acid is not cell permeable and is only useful for manipulating extracellular Ca2+ levels, BAPTA/AM can be used with a wide variety of cells, where it is hydrolyzed by cytosolic esterases and trapped intracellularly. Experiments have shown that BAPTA/AM abolishes vitamin D3-induced increase in intracellular Ca2+, and may induce inactivation of protein kinase C. Has also been shown to inhibit thapsigargin-induced apoptosis in rat thymocytes. This product is a high quality and sensitive compound for calcium signaling studies, investigation of signal transduction and apoptotic cascades, and neuroscience research.
