Description

Phenoxazine is a fluorescence probe that binds to DNA and has minimal toxicity. It is used in biological studies as a redox potential indicator to measure the electrochemical impedance of cells. Phenoxazine has been shown to have anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting prostaglandin E2 levels in HL-60 cells. This drug also can be used as a model system for studying infectious diseases, such as tuberculosis, which are caused by mycobacteria. Phenoxazine has been shown to inhibit the growth of mycobacteria using an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique.
