Patent number: 5049673Abstract: The present invention discloses a new class of calcium specific fluorescent indicator dyes having visible excitation and emission wavelengths. The new fluorescent indicator dyes combine at least one tricyclic chromophore with a tetracarboxylate parent CA.sup.2+ chelating compound having the octacoordinate pattern of liganding groups characteristic of BAPTA to give a rhodamine-like or fluorescein-like fluorophore. Binding of calcium.sup.2+ increases the fluorescence of the new compounds by up to 40-fold. The calcium.sup.2+ dissociation constants are in the range 0.37-2.3 microM, so that the new indicators give better resolution of high [CA.sup.2+ ] levels than were previously obtainable with predecessor compounds such as quin-2 or fluo-2. The visible excitation wavelengths of the new compounds are more convenient for fluorescent microscopy and flow cytometry than the UV required by previous indicators.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 1987Date of Patent: September 17, 1991Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Roger Y.
