Special applications using confocal microscopy and the fluorometric imaging plate reader are included. The book outlines a variety of methods concerning measurement of calcium as it enters or exits cells. Specific protocols are included for smooth muscle, heart, and plant cells. Specialized methods for measuring calmodulin and ATPase activity conclude this volume. The protocols in this book are specific.
Most protocols identify required materials such as buffers, reagents and cell lines.
Hopefully these protocols are adaptable by scientists for use in specific research. Certainly, the methods are specific enough not to leave the researcher stranded.
