Calcium Flux and cAMP Assay Service
Calcium flux & cAMP Assay is a crucial technology in cell signaling research, enabling the analysis of dynamic changes in intracellular calcium ions (Ca²⁺) and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP).
Creative Biolabs is pleased to announce the launch of our cutting-edge Calcium flux & cAMP Assay service, which provides an effective solution for studying intracellular signaling pathways. To learn more about our products and services, submit a project inquiry, or request pricing, please contact us at your earliest convenience.
Calcium Flux Assay
Calcium flux assays are primarily used to study changes in intracellular Ca²⁺ concentrations. Calcium ions play a key role as second messengers in many biological processes. To illuminate the role of these ions, calcium flux assays typically use fluorescent probes that change their fluorescence properties upon binding to Ca²⁺, allowing changes in intracellular Ca²⁺ concentrations to be monitored by techniques such as fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. Calcium flux assays are often used to screen drugs for G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and calcium channels.

cAMP Assay
The cAMP flux assay focuses on changes in intracellular cAMP levels. cAMP is an important secondary messenger that regulates a variety of cellular functions. cAMP flux assay methods include ELISA, bioluminescence, and high-throughput homogeneous ELISA, which provide high sensitivity and high-throughput detection.
The combination of calcium flux and cAMP assays offers a more comprehensive approach to the study of signaling. For example, in certain cell types, there is a sophisticated interplay between calcium and cAMP signaling that may influence the cell's response to diverse stimuli.
