Multiplexed and spatiotemporal measurements of glutamate secreted by neurons and bacteria†
Abstract
By applying an in vivo biotinylation platform, glutamate-sensing protein can be easily immobilized on streptavidin-functionalized magnetic microbeads, which expands the detection modality for the spatiotemporal measurements of glutamate secreted by adherent neuronal cells and suspension microbial cells using fluorescence microscopy and microplate photometers.
