Product Information

• Name: 3,3',5,5'-Tetramethylbenzidine dihydrochloride dihydrate
• Synonyms: Tetramethylbenzidine HCl
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3,3',5,5'-Tetramethylbenzidine dihydrochloride dihydrate is a hydrophilic, non-fluorescent, and water-soluble chemical that is used as an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) substrate. It has been shown to be reactive with peroxide and hydrogen peroxide in vitro and in vivo. 3,3',5,5'-Tetramethylbenzidine dihydrochloride dihydrate also has peroxidase-like activity when interacting with monomers to form polymers. The monomers are recombinantly human proteins that have been modified to increase the molecule's solubility. This increased solubility increases the interaction of the monomers with oxidants such as hydrogen peroxide or peroxides.
