2.PrepareFluo-8NWdye-loadingsolution(foroneplate):
2.1 Thaw1vialofFluo-8NW(ComponentA),1bottleof10XPluronic®F127Plus(ComponentB)andHHBS(ComponentC)atroomtemperaturebeforeuse.
2.2 MakeFluo-8NWstocksolution:Add10µL(forCat.#36307)or100µL(forCat.#36308and#36309)ofDMSOintoFluo-8NW(ComponentA),andmixthemwell.

b).ForCat.#36309(100plateskit),make1Xassaybufferbyaddingthewholebottleof10XPluronic®F127Plus(10mL,ComponentB)into90mLofHHBSbuffer(notincludedinthekit),andmixthemwell.
Note:10mLof1Xassaybufferisenoughforoneplate.Aliquotandstoreunused1Xassaybufferat<‑20 oC.Protectfromlightandavoidrepeatedfreeze-thawcycles.
2.4 MakeFluo-8NWdye-loadingsolutionforonecellplate:Add10µLofFluo-8NWDMSOstocksolution(fromStep2.2)into10mLof1Xassaybuffer(fromStep2.3),andmixthemwell.Thisworkingsolutionisstableforatleast2hoursatroomtemperature.
3.Runcalciumassay:
3.1 Removethegrowthmediumfromthecellplate.

Note2:Alternatively,growthecellsingrowthmediumwith0.5-to1%FBStoavoidmediumremovalstep.Inthiscase,2XdyeloadingsolutioninHHBSbufferisneeded.[Weoffer2separatenowashcalciumassaykits(Cat.#36315andCat.#36316)forthosewhouse0.5-to1%FBSingrowthmediumtoavoidthemediumremovalstep].
3.2 Add100µL/well(96-wellplate)or25µL/well(384-wellplate)ofFluo-8NWdye-loadingsolution(fromStep2.4)intothecellplate(fromStep3.1).
3.3 Incubatethedye-loadingplateinacellincubatorfor30minutes,andthenincubatetheplateatroomtemperatureforanother30minutes.
