Superior Detection for Diversified Targets

The FLIPR Calcium 3 Assay Kit provides a universal method for detecting changes in intracellular calcium concentration in a simple and reliable homogeneous assay format. Specifically, this fast and simple fluorescence-based assay yields maximum signal intensity, thereby allowing the researcher to accurately and easily detect intercellular calcium fluxes across a broad spectrum of targets. Further, the FLIPR Calcium 3 Assay Kit is designed to produce superior results from chemokine and small peptide targets, as well as transient, endogenous, orphan and low-expression receptors that have been difficult to assay with standard assay formats.

FLIPR assays for GPCRS    

Calcium mobilization assays for screening GPCR targets are preferred techniques in drug discovery because they generate high quality leads. The Molecular Devices FLIPR system is the method of choice among pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies for screening calcium flux assays in high throughput. The Molecular Devices FlexStation™ is also commonly used in assay development, target validation and lower throughput applications.    

Optimized assays    

To simplify assay development and optimize performance on both FLIPR and FlexStation, Molecular Devices has developed a series of no-wash assay kits. The combination of proprietary chemistry and a no-wash protocol causes less cellular disruption than traditional methods to generate consistent results and strong signals. FLIPR Assay Kits provide the easiest way to get the best performance from your FLIPR or FlexStation system.
