Calcium ionophore II (ETH 129) was used in preparing calcium selective minielectrodes which are used in determination of dissociation constant (Kd).[1]
Lipophilic ionophore for Ca2+-selective electrodes with detection limit in the sub-nanomolar range. Extremely efficient carrier of Ca2+-ions; induces a selectivity in membranes for Ca2+ over Mg2+ by a factor of about 104.
Suitable for intracellular calcium measurements[2].

Divalent cations are required for many essential functions of mitochondrial metabolism. Yet the transporters that mediate the flux of these molecules into and out of the mitochondrion remain largely unknown. Previous studies in yeast have led to the molecular identification
Wearable health monitoring has garnered considerable interest from the healthcare industry as an evolutionary alternative to standard practices with the ability to provide rapid, off-site diagnosis and patient-monitoring. In particular, sweat-based wearable biosensors offer a noninvasive route to continuously monitor
We have examined the binding of the fluorescent Ca indicator indo-1 to cellular protein in permeabilized ventricular myocytes and also to soluble and particulate myocyte protein. Using either a filtration technique or equilibrium dialysis, and conditions similar to those in
Ultrathin metallic WS2 (M-WS2) nanosheets and semiconductive WS2 (S-WS2) nanosheets were exfoliated and for the first time employed as ion-to-electron transducing layer to construct an all-solid-state ion-selective electrode. Importantly, we found that the transducing efficiency of WS2 nanosheet-based solid-contact layer is
We have investigated the ability of the neutral ionophore ETH 129 to translocate Ca2+ across artificial and biological membranes. ETH 129 induces Ca2+ transport across planar lipid bilayer. The zero-current membrane potential in a gradient of Ca2+ concentration exhibits Nernst
