Description

2-Amino-5-fluorobenzamide (2AFB) is a compound that has been shown to have neurotoxic properties. 2AFB is a ring-opening agent, which means it can open the six-membered ring of aromatic compounds such as benzene or pyridine. 2AFB also has affinity for metal ions and therefore can be used in magnetic separations. The reaction system of 2AFB includes an enzyme, pentylenetetrazole (PTZ), that catalyzes the reaction between 2AFB and its substrate, 4-nitrophenol (4NP). This reaction produces free radicals that react with oxygen to produce peroxides. These peroxides are then detected by a chemiluminescence assay. In this way, the amount of 2AFB and 4NP can be measured quantitatively.
2AFB also has antioxidant properties, which may be due to its ability to scavenge free radicals from
