| Abstract | We report a method for the concurrent measurement of intracellular [Na+] ([Na+]i) and pH (pHi) in cells co-loaded with SBFI, a Na+-sensitive fluorophore, and either carboxy SNARF-1 or SNARF-5F, H+-sensitive fluorophores. With the optical filters specified, fluorescence emissions from SBFI and either SNARF derivative were sufficiently distinct to allow the accurate measurement of [Na+]i and pHi in rat hippocampal neurons. Neither the Na+ sensitivity of SBFI nor the pH sensitivities of carboxy SNARF-1 or SNARF-5F was affected by the presence of a SNARF derivative or SBFI, respectively. In addition, the calibration parameters obtained in neurons single-loaded with SBFI, carboxy SNARF-1 or SNARF-5F were not significantly influenced by the presence of a second fluorophore. In contrast to the established weak sensitivity of SBFI for protons, both SNARF derivatives appeared essentially insensitive to changes in [Na+]i. The utility of the technique was demonstrated in neurons co-loaded with SBFI and SNARF-5F, which was found to have a lower pKa in situ than carboxy SNARF-1. There were no significant differences in the changes in [Na+]i and pHi observed in response either to intracellular acid loads imposed by the NH4+ prepulse technique or to transient periods of anoxia in neurons single-loaded with SBFI or SNARF-5F or co-loaded with both probes. The findings support the feasibility of using SBFI in conjunction with either carboxy SNARF-1 or SNARF-5F to concurrently and accurately measure [Na+]i and pHi. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
