Product Information

• Name: 1,3,5-Naphthalene trisulfonic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 1,3,5-Naphthalene trisulfonic acid is an organic compound that is the product of the sulfonation of naphthalene. It has been shown to inhibit the activity of 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, enzymes involved in steroidogenesis. The maximal response was observed at a concentration of 500 μM with a detection time of 30 minutes. Xenopus oocytes were used for expression and chloride currents were recorded as an indicator for enzyme activity. Concentration-response curves were generated with organic solvents such as methanol and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). 1,3,5-Naphthalene trisulfonic acid also inhibits the oxidative activities of some enzymes such as lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase.
