| In Vitro | Calcein blue AM is only weakly fluorescent (excitation/emission maxima 322/435 nm). Upon cleavage of the AM esters by intracellular esterases, this tracer becomes relatively polar and is retained by cells for several hours. In addition, its fluorescence intensity increases and its fluorescence spectra shift to longer wavelengths, with excitation/emission maxima of 360/449 nm. The fluorescence of Calcein Blue is known to be quenched in the presence of iron(III); if a stronger chelator removes this ion from the fluorophore, the fluorescence of the fluorophore is regained[1]. A novel fluorimetric assay for dopamine using calcein blue (CB) complexed with Fe2 ion as a chemical sensor is described. The fluorescence arising from calcein blue of the calcein blue–Fe2 complex is quenched by the Fe2 ion. When dopamine is added to a solution of the calcein blue–Fe2 complex, a dopamine–Fe2 complex is formed as the result of a ligand exchange reaction between calcein blue and dopamine which permits the fluorescence from calcein blue to be recovered. The fluorescence intensity at the wavelength of 440 nm (at the excitation wavelength of 340 nm) is found to be proportional to the concentration of the dopamine added to the calcein blue–Fe2 complex solution, which permits dopamine to be quantitatively determined[2]. |
| Cell Assay | The recommended final working concentrations is usually between 1 and 10 μM to minimize potential artifacts. Generally, 15 minutes to 1 hour is sufficient for cellular uptake and processing of the dyes. A stock concentration of 5 mM 4-methylumbelliferone-8- methyliminodiacetic acid, commonly known as calcein blue is prepared in 0.1 M potassium hydroxide, and the pH is neutralized using 0.1 N hydrochloric acid. The calcein blue stock prepared is diluted to 200 μM (working stock) in DPBS and stored for further use. A concentration of 10 μM calcein blue is prepared from the working stock by diluting in DPBS. From this, 200 μL is added to a 96-well plate and the excitation/emission (Ex./Em.) maximum is determined using the micro-plate reader[1]. |
