Product Overview:
BAPTA (Item No. 11706) is membrane-impermeable calcium chelator that binds extracellular calcium ions (Kd = 0.11 μM), with selectivity over magnesium ions or protons.{22804,23059} BAPTA and its derivatives can also be used as calcium indicators, since the absorption maximum for BAPTA changes when it is complexed with calcium (absorption maxima free/complexed = 254/274 nm, emission maxima free/complexed = 363/363 nm).{25230} BAPTA AM is a cell permeable analog of BAPTA that binds calcium only after the acetoxymethyl group is removed by cytoplasmic esterases.{25228} It is commonly used at 10-100 μM to evaluate the role of intracellular calcium in cell signaling.{25229,25228,25226,25225} It can also be used in animals.{25228} BAPTA AM also inhibits voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels, including Kv1.3, Kv1.5, and Kv11.1 (Ki = 1.45, 1.23, and 1.30 μM, respectively).{25227}

Cayman Chemical's mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.

Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.

Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.

Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
