Calcium is one of the most important metal ions that is essential in the regulation of diverse cellular processes in all living organisms. They function as a key second messenger through its sequestration and release into the cytoplasm via calcium channels thereby regulating various cell signaling pathways. AkrivisBio’s Calcium Assay provides a simple and direct method for measuring Ca²⁺ concentration in a variety of samples. In this assay, Ca²⁺ binds to alkaline O-Cresolphthalein Complexone to form a chromogen measured at OD 575 nm. The intensity of the color is directly proportional to the calcium concentration in the sample.
