Product Information

• Name: 2,3,5,6-Tetrachlorophenol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2,3,5,6-Tetrachlorophenol is a chemical that is used as a solvent in analytical chemistry. It has been shown to be an effective agent for the treatment of wastewater and is used in the production of plastics and pesticides. 2,3,5,6-Tetrachlorophenol binds to hydroxyl groups in the human liver and kidneys. The binding of 2,3,5,6-tetrachlorophenol to these groups leads to an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production by the cells. This change alters cellular processes such as DNA synthesis and cell division. The kinetic data for this reaction are limited due to its high reactivity. The best way to measure this reaction would be using a flow system with urine samples as the substrate molecule.
