The dye is classified as hydrophilic, meaning it dissolves in water. Acid Black 242 has a color index number of PBk 6. It reacts with sulfide to form an acidic compound, which can be used to modulate the reaction time of certain reactions. Acid Black 242 is a benzene derivative that has been shown to depress the central nervous system when inhaled or ingested. It also inhibits the activity of diaminobenzene, which can cause depression when consumed orally or injected intravenously. The fluorescence emission spectrum of Acid Black 242 overlaps with that of other dyes such as acid red 1 and acid violet 7.Purity:Min. 95%Iodonitrotetrazolium chloride
CAS:The monotetrazolium salt Iodonitrotetrazolium chloride (INT), first described by Atkinson et al. (1950), is an iodinated derivative of TTC (2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride) with an absorption λmax of 248 nm. The color produced by reduction of this iodonitro compound is a red to purple or brownish formazan with an absorption maximum at 485 to 492 nm (depending on the solvent). INT is often used to visualize dehydrogenase activity histochemically as well as in Western blot staining and as a staining agent for agar colony formation assays. NAD or NADP-dependent dehydrogenases activity assays: NAD+- or NADP+-dependent dehydrogenase transfers electrons from a substrate (the electron donor, e.g. succinate) to NAD+ or NADP+, forming NADH and NADPH, respectively. Then, the final transfer of hydrogen to the tetrazolium salt is catalyzed by NADH or NADPH dehydrogenases (e.g. succinate dehydrogenase), leading to the reduction of INT and formation of the water-insoluble INT-formazan. 1 mol of formazan is produced for each mole of succinate utilized in the presence of INT. It is important to mention for applications in histology, that INT-formazan precipitates at the site of this latter dehydrogenase but not at the site of the original NAD+- or NADP+-dependent dehydrogenase activity.Formula:C19H13ClIN5O2Purity:Min. 98%Color and Shape:PowderMolecular weight:505.7 g/molRef: 3D-EI13589
Discontinued productThiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide
CAS:Thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide, also called 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide and methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide, and mainly known as MTT, is employed in the so-called MTT reduction or colorimetric assay. The MTT assay is used to determine the metabolic activity of living cells and the viable cell number in proliferation and cytotoxicity studies. The assay is based on the enzymatic reduction of the yellow MTT to the purple-blue water-insoluble formazan catalysed by mitochondrial dehydrogenases of living cells. The amount of formazan produced is directly proportional to the number of viable cells and can be quantified by measuring absorbance at 570nm. The MTT assay is broadly employed in cell biology because it is rapid and economical. MTT is also used as enzyme substrates in studies of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP)-dependent dehydrogenases.Formula:C18H16BrN5SPurity:Min. 97 Area-%Color and Shape:Yellow PowderMolecular weight:414.32 g/molC.I.Basic Yellow 49

CAS:Acid red 88 is a synthetic dye that has been used as a colorant in food, textiles and cosmetics. It is also used in wastewater treatment to remove organic pollutants from water. Acid red 88 has shown to be toxic to aquatic organisms, including fish and crustaceans. It has also shown to be highly adsorptive and stable in the environment. The hydrochloric acid-catalyzed conversion of Acid red 88 yields stable complexes with metals such as nickel, copper and zinc. These metal complexes are more resistant to degradation by biological treatment than other metal complexes with Acid red 88. Synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy showed that diazonium salt reacts with Acid Red 88 to form a diazo compound that can react with amines or ammonia gas to form an azoxy compound. This reaction can be catalyzed by activated carbon or detergent compositions containing an amine or ammonia gas.

CAS:C.I. Mordant Orange 6 is an alkanoic acid with a hydroxyl group and a sodium carbonate counter ion in the form of a coordination complex that is chemically stable in the presence of light and heat. The synthesis of this compound involves the reaction of 2-nitrobenzaldehyde with sodium hydroxylsulfonate followed by hydrolysis of the product with sodium carbonate. This synthetic process is used to produce C.I. Mordant Orange 6 in large quantities, which are then purified using chromatography or recrystallization techniques. The biological studies on C.I. Mordant Orange 6 have shown that it has antimicrobial properties, but it does not show cytotoxic effects against human cells in culture at concentrations up to 10 µg/mL, making it a potential candidate for use as an antimicrobial agent for applications such as food packaging materials.br>br>C.I.

CAS:D-102Dye is a cationic dye and drug repositioning agent that is used for the treatment of bacterial infections. This compound has been shown to be an active inhibitor of bacterial growth by binding to the surface glycoprotein and inhibiting the transport of nutrients into the cell. D-102Dye binds to the hydrophobic pocket on the outer membrane, forming hydrogen bonds with the phosphate groups found there. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy studies have shown that this compound inhibits bacterial growth in logarithmic phase cells, but not in stationary phase cells. This may be due to its ability to bind to surface glycoproteins in these different phases. D-102Dye also has high affinity for monoclonal antibodies and methoxy groups, which are present on many proteins and enzymes in mammalian cells.Formula:C37H30N2O3S2Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:614.78 g/molRef: 3D-FD22632
