Product Information

• Name: 2-Bromoethane-1-thiol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Bromoethane-1-thiol (2BET) is a hydrogen bond sensitive sensor that can be used in the detection of reactive oxygen species. 2BET has been shown to have a high sensitivity and selectivity to hydrogen peroxide, with an observed response time of less than 1 second. This sensor has been found to be useful for detecting short-term changes in hydrogen peroxide concentrations and can also detect long term changes due to its stability in the membrane. 2BET is also highly selective for hydrogen peroxide and does not react with other compounds, such as nitric oxide or sulfur dioxide. 2BET is a cavity type sensor that consists of two gold electrodes with a polyelectrolyte membrane between them. When exposed to reactive oxygen species, the polyelectrolyte membrane becomes crosslinked and this change in permeability can be detected by measuring the current across the electrodes. 2BET sensors are able to distinguish between isotopomers
