Dear confocalists,

     Does anyone know a good fluorescent indicator for aluminum ?
     Molecular Probes quotes Calcein as a potential indicator, however will
     this dye one can expect calcium and magnesium to interfere.

     I try to find a fluorescent dye that would complex aluminum in
     presence of magnesium and calcium. Does anyone know such a dye ?

     Thanks,
