Indo--1 Fluorescence and intracellular Ca2+ concentration in solution of Styl...
The fluorescence of the calcium dye Indo-1 was measured in solution by confocal microscopy at different calcium concentrations. A calibration curve was produced from the ratio... -
Quantification of intracellular 'free' calcium in isolated coral cells of Sty...
Despite its prominent role as an intracellular messenger in all organisms, intracellular free calcium ([Ca2+]i) has not been quantified in corals or cnidarians in general.... -
Proton gradients across the coral calcifying cell layer: effects of light, oc...
Internal pH measurements made in the extracellular calcifying medium (ECM), calcifying (calicoblastic) epithelium and mesoglea of the coral Stylophora pistillata using the... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and proton gradients across the coral calcifying...
In corals, pH regulation of the extracellular calcifying medium (ECM) by the calcifying cell layer is a crucial step in the calcification process and is potentially important to...
