EGTA-AM
EGTA-AM (ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid, acetoxymethyl ester, EGTA Acetoxymethyl ester) is a cell-permeable derivative of EGTA, a calcium chelator. The acetoxymethyl (AM) ester group allows EGTA to cross the cell membrane, where intracellular esterases hydrolyze it, releasing the active EGTA form. This active form binds calcium ions (Ca²⁺) in the cytosol.
