Product Information

• Name: 2,3,3-Trimethyl-3H-benzo[e]indole
• Synonyms: TMBI1,1,2-Trimethyl-1H-benzo[e]indole
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2,3,3-Trimethyl-3H-benzo[e]indole is a reactive molecule that has been shown to be an effective treatment for cervical cancer. It can be used in conjunction with monoclonal antibodies that have been designed to target the acidic protonation sites on the surface of cervical cancer cells. This active form binds to the site and emits fluorescence when illuminated with a laser, which can then be detected by a confocal microscope. This technique can also be used for the diagnosis of other cancers. 2,3,3-Trimethyl-3H-benzo[e]indole is not toxic to human serum as it does not react with this type of tissue.
