BAPTA tetrapotassium is a selective chelator for calcium. BAPTA, as calcium indicator, has high selectivity against magnesium and calcium. BAPTA tetrapotassium is widely used as an intracellular buffer for investigating the effects of Ca²⁺ release from intracellular stores or influx via Ca²⁺-permeable channels in the plasma membrane. BAPTA tetrapotassium can also inhibit phospholipase C activity independently of their role as Ca²⁺ chelators.

Description

In Vitro

BAPTA (0.3-30 μM; 1 h) can be used for the prevention of [Ca²⁺]-induced cell damage, but disturbe calcium signalling in isingle differentiated NH15-CA2 neuroblastoma and glioma hybrid cells^[3].
BAPTA (0-10 mM) inhibits phospholipase C (PLC) activity in a dose-dependent manner, and is unrelated to Ca²⁺^[2].
