Product Information

• Name: 3,4,5,6-Tetrabromophenolsulfonephthalein

Description

3,4,5,6-Tetrabromophenolsulfonephthalein is a colorless organic compound that is used in the medical field as an indicator of renal function. It is used to measure the glomerular filtration rate and determine if the kidneys are functioning properly. 3,4,5,6-Tetrabromophenolsulfonephthalein binds to fatty acids in the bloodstream and is absorbed by cells. The chemical structure of this molecule causes it to be taken up by cells with a high rate of lipid content such as those found in the liver and kidney. This uptake can be visualized using a spectrophotometer or microscope. 3,4,5,6-Tetrabromophenolsulfonephthalein inhibits fatty acid uptake into cells through an unknown mechanism.
