Application: | Bromobimane is used for the determination of thiols by the HPLC method. It is suitable as a pre-column derivatization agent for fluorometric determination of 2,3-dimercaptopropane-1-s Bromobimane has been used for the quantitative measurement of free hydrogen sulfide in vivo and in vitro. It has been used for the labeling of proteins containing thiol groups. |
Biochem/physiol Actions: | Bromobimane in solution reacts with small thiol groups (e.g., GSH) and with reactive protein thiol groups (e.g., hemoglobin). The reaction of Bromobimane with thiols is of second-order and dependent on pH and upon reacting with thiolate, it activates the water-soluble fluorescent product for detection. |
General description: | Bromobimane is also known as monobromobimane. It is also a known probe for thiols and is a fluorescent reagent activated upon a photolysis reaction. |
