Description

1,2-Bis(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)ethane-1,2-dione is a fluorescent probe that binds to the d4 receptor in the bladder. It is used to diagnose and monitor acute or chronic bladder inflammation by measuring the intensity of light emitted from its reaction with water vapor. This drug reacts with an optimum concentration of chlorine atoms (10 mM), and phosphites (0.05 mM) to produce a blue fluorescent product that can be measured at room temperature. 1,2-Bis(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)ethane-1,2-dione has been shown to react with fatty acids and dopamine d3 in urine to form a fluorescent product that can be detected by ultraviolet light.
