Description
Rhod-5N is a low affinity fluorescent calcium probe (Kd = 320 uM). Low affinity calcium indicators are particularly useful for studying compartments with high concentrations of calcium, such as endoplasmic reticulum, where high affinity dyes will be insensitive to luminal fluctuations. Rhod-5N has excitation/emission maxima of approximately 551 and 576 nm, respectively
