Cell-based calcium assay for medium to high throughput screening of TRP channel functions using FlexStation 3
The Molecular Devices' FlexStation 3 is a benchtop multi-mode microplate reader capable of
automated fluorescence measurement in multi-well plates. It is ideal for medium-to high-
throughput screens in academic settings. It has an integrated fluid transfer module equipped
with a multi-channel pipetter and the machine reads one column at a time to monitor
fluorescence changes of a variety of fluorescent reagents. For example, FlexStation 3 has
been used to study the function of Ca2+-permeable ion channels and G-protein coupled …
