A Novel Homogenous Potassium Ion Channel Assay for High-Throughput Screening

Due to their crucial physiological functions and their implication in drug-induced toxicity, potassium channels are heavily investigated by the pharmaceutical industry. Molecular Devices has developed a new reagent, the FLIPR® Potassium Assay Kit. This poster demonstrates its use for analyzing potassium ion channel activities on a FLIPR Tetra System. This reagent kit provides a homogeneous, fast, simple and reliable fluorescence-based high-throughput assay for potassium channel activity.
