The 8 Best Green Fluorescent Calcium Indicators

With so many possibilities, it can be difficult and tedious to select the appropriate calcium indicator for a given calcium ion flux assay. To streamline the process, here is what we consider to be the eight best single-wavelength, green fluorescent calcium indicators available.

How to Select a Calcium Indicator?

Fluorescent indicators that show spectral responses upon binding calcium have enabled researchers to investigate changes in intracellular free calcium concentrations by using fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, fluorescence spectroscopy and fluorescence microplate readers.
