Uses
5-Nitro BAPTA is a calcium chelator, combinded with 2-Me-substituted TM ( as a fluorescent moiety), can be used to form a red fluorescent probe (CaTM-2 AM), for imaging of cytoplasmic Ca2+ in cultured living cells. 5-Nitro BAPTA is a building block used in the synthesis of Ca2+ specific chelators, Ca2+ buffers, and fluorescent Ca2+ indicators[1][2].
