Product Information

• Name: Luminol, sodium salt
• Synonyms: 5-Amino-2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione sodium salt 3-Amino-phthalhydrazide sodium salt
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Luminol is a molecule that contains an active oxygen group, which reacts with various substances to produce light. It is used as a reagent in clinical development, highlighting and validating drugs. Luminol can be used to detect the presence of blood in urine, semen and other fluids. The safety profile of this compound has been studied extensively and shown to be safe for use in humans. The reactive nature of luminol makes it effective as an enhancer of fluorescence due to its ability to increase the production of excited states. In addition, luminol reacts with selenium compounds, which are often found in some drugs. This allows for the detection or identification of these drugs using only a small amount of luminol solution.
