Product overview

Name Ionomycin calcium salt
Purity >98%
Customer comments

Ionomycin calcium salt does what it should. This was my first time buying a product from Hello Bio. I am pleased with their customer service and follow up. The product was delivered in a relatively short time as estimated. The product dose causes the intracellular calcium to be released as expected. Overall experience with Hello Bio was good. Verified customer, UEA: University of East Anglia)

Biological Data

Biological description

Ionomycin calcium salt is a potent calcium ionophore which shows selectivity for Ca2+ over Mg2+ and K+. It acts as a Ca2+ carrier and is the calcium salt of ionomycin.


Ionomycin directly stimulates store-regulated cation entry across biological membranes to enhance Ca2+ influx and increase intracellular Ca2+ concentration.


Ionomycin also synergies with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) to enhance activation of PKC and is frequently used in combination with PMA to stimulate T-cell activation and intracellular production of cytokines.

Ionomycin also induces apoptosis.


Calcium ionophore A23187 also available.
