Membrane hyperpolarization mediated by 10 μM Evans Blue (EB) in HEKBKα was clearly seen using DiBAC4(3), however the addition of 3 mM tetraethylammonium chloride (TEA) led in a significantly lesser change in membrane potential (MP). Electrodes measure slowly. The peak periods of hyperpolarization assessed by microelectrodes and DiBAC4(3) were 2.3±0.9 s (n=4) and 35.0±2.6 s (n=12, P<0.01) respectively [1].

| Cell Assay |
Before the fluorescence measurements, cells were incubated in KRH (Krebs-Ringer-HEPES) buffer containing with 100 nM DiBAC4(3) for 20 min at room temperature. The stained cells were used for experiments without washing. The fluorescence emission was collected using a 505 nm dicroic mirror and a BA filter (>520 nm)[1].

| Additional Infomation |
This study evaluated the application of the voltage-sensitive fluorescent dye bis-(1,3-dibutylbarbituric acid)-trimethoxyxanthol (DiBAC4(3)) in membrane potential (MP) measurement in HEK293 cells. HEK293 cells express the α subunit or α+β1 subunit of a high-conductivity calcium-activated potassium (BK) channel (denoted as HEKBKα and HEKBKαβ, respectively). Under voltage-clamped conditions, the fluorescence intensity of DiBAC4(3) was measured at different membrane potentials to calibrate and semi-quantitatively estimate the absolute membrane potential. The resting membrane potential measured by DiBAC4(3) was roughly equivalent to the membrane potential recorded by the microelectrode; the membrane potential of HEKBKα cells was 10-20 mV lower than that of native HEK cells. In HEKBKα cells, 10 μM Evans blue (a BK channel opener)-induced membrane hyperpolarization was detectable by DiBAC4(3). NS-1619 is another BK channel opener that induces a slow but significant change in F/F(K) even in native HEK cells, while simultaneously detecting the opening effect of BK channels. In HEKBKαβ cells, oscillatory membrane hyperpolarization can be induced by increasing intracellular Ca2+ concentration and applying 10 μM acetylcholine. However, this oscillatory hyperpolarization can only be detected by DiBAC4(3) and appears as a slow hyperpolarization. It can be concluded that the relatively slow effect of BK channel regulators can be semi-quantitatively measured using DiBAC4(3) in HEKBK cells, but its limited temporal resolution and potential artifacts should be taken into account.

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
