• Descripción: 2-Mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) is an organosulfur compound that has been shown to have a variety of biological and chemical properties. MBT has been shown to possess potent antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It has also been shown to be effective in wastewater treatment as a coagulant, sequestering agent, and flocculant. The optical sensor for MBT is based on the Langmuir adsorption isotherm and the optimum concentration of MBT is around 1 mM. The toxicological studies of MBT in animals have shown that it does not produce any adverse effects at doses up to 5000 mg/kg body weight. This may be due to its low solubility in water or its rapid metabolism by liver enzymes. The reaction mechanism of MBT with potassium dichromate involves a nucleophilic attack on the chromium atom, followed by displacement by sulfuric acid generated from hydrogen sulf
