A two-photon fluorescent probe for near-membrane calcium ions in live cells and tissues

Abstract

A two-photon fluorescent probe (ACaL) is reported that can be excited by 780 nm fs pulses, shows high photostability and negligible toxicity, and can visualize near-membrane Ca2+ in live cells and deep inside live tissues by two-photon microscopy.
