Brand: Invitrogen™ EEA006
Description
The Calcium Colorimetric Assay Kit is a highly reliable and sensitive assay designed for the quantitative measurement of calcium content in various sample types. Calcium is an important multifunctional signaling molecule required for biological functions such as muscle contraction, nerve conduction, and blood regulation. Calcium-mediated signal transduction is the basis of many basic processes of mammalian development and reproduction.
In this assay, calcium ions in samples bind to Methyl Thymol Blue (MTB) in an alkaline solution and form a blue complex. The blue complex has a specific absorption peak at 610 nm, and calcium content can be calculated by measuring the OD.
