Calcein acetoxymethylester (Calcein AM) is a non-fluorescent, cell permeate compound that is hydrolyzed by intracellular esterases into the fluorescent anion calcein.
Calcein-AM是一種可對活細胞進行螢光標記的細胞染色試劑,Calcein-AM由於在Calcein(鈣黃綠素)的基礎上加強了疏水性,因此能夠輕易穿透活細胞膜。當其進入到細胞質後,酯酶會將其水解為Calcein(鈣黃綠素)留在細胞內,發出強綠色螢光。
與其他同類試劑(如BCECF-AM和Carboxy-fluorescein diacetate)相比,Calcein-AM是最適合作為螢光探針去染活細胞的,因為它的細胞毒性很低。Calcein(鈣黃綠素)不會抑制任何的細胞功能如增殖或淋巴球的趨化性。另外,使用了Calcein(鈣黃綠素)的活性檢測的實驗結果是十分可信並且與標準的51Cr-釋放法所得結果相一致的。
Calcein(鈣黃綠素)的激發和發射波長分別為490 nm和515 nm。Calcein-AM和碘化丙啶(PI)溶液,它們分別可對活細胞和死細胞染色。Calcein-AM的乙酸甲基酯親脂性很高,使其可透過細胞膜,通過活細胞內的酯酶作用,Calcein-AM能脫去AM基,產生的Calcein(鈣黃綠素)能發出強綠色螢光,因此Calcein-AM僅對活細胞染色。另一方面,作為核染色染料的PI不能穿過活細胞的細胞膜。它穿過死細胞膜的無序區域而到達細胞核,並嵌入細胞的DNA雙螺旋從而產生紅色螢光(激發:535 nm,發射:617 nm),因此PI僅對死細胞染色。由於Calcein(鈣黃綠素)和PI-DNA都可被490 nm激發,因此可用螢光顯微鏡同時觀察活細胞和死細胞。用545 nm激發,僅可觀察到死細胞。根據以上特點,Calcein-AM和碘化丙啶(PI)經常被結合用來作為活細胞和死細胞的雙重染色。
BIOVISION and TREVIGEN™ Calcein AM Fluorescent Dye can be used to fluorescently label viable cells for a variety of assays such as tumor cell invasion, endothelial cell migration, and endothelial cell tubulogenesis.

Description: A cell-permeable, non-fluorescent acetoxymethyl ester derivative of Calcein that gets hydrolyzed inside the cell by esterases. The loss of the acetoxymethyl group also enables calcein to readily bind intracellular calcium resulting in a strong yellowish-green fluorescence. It is the best probe for cell viablilty and cell adhesion due to its greater retention in cells as well and its pH insensitivity in physiological range.
Handling: Protect from air and light
USAGE: For Research Use Only! Not For Use in Humans.
