Bromoxylenol Blue

Ref. 3D-FB56843

Product Information

• Name: Bromoxylenol Blue
• Synonyms: 3',3''-Dibromo-p-xylenolsulfonephthalein
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Bromoxylenol Blue is a potential anticancer agent that has shown to be effective in radiation-induced cell death. It has also been shown to inhibit the growth of tumor cells and normal cells in culture, with a much higher effect on tumor cells. Bromoxylenol Blue also inhibits mitochondrial membrane potential and water vapor transfer, which may prevent tumor growth by inhibiting the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reducing cellular proliferation. Bromoxylenol Blue is not active against bone cancer or fetal bovine serum, but it does inhibit allyl carbonate transfer reactions, which are necessary for DNA synthesis. This drug also has an effect on cation channels that leads to the inhibition of calcium influx into the cell.
