Asante Potassium Green 2(APG-2) is a higher affinity analog of APG-1, as demonstrated by comparing the fluorimetricemission potassium chloride titrations of APG-1 (Figure 3.2) and APG-2 (Figure 3.3), with identical excitation and emission wavelengths. It retains the desirable properties of easy loading, slow leakage, and good photostability.
