Description

Luminol Hydrochloride CAS NO 74165-64-3 is a high-purity, crystalline chemical compound widely recognized as a critical chemiluminescent reagent. Its primary value lies in its ability to produce a characteristic blue glow upon reaction with an oxidizing agent in the presence of a catalyst, making it indispensable for sensitive detection systems. This product is essential for research, diagnostic, and forensic laboratories requiring reliable and consistent performance in trace analysis.

Application

• Chemiluminescence Detection: A fundamental reagent in forensic science for the presumptive detection of blood (hemoglobin) at crime scenes.
• Biosensor & Diagnostic Kits: Used as a signal-generating component in immunoassays and DNA hybridization assays for medical diagnostics and life science research.
• Analytical Chemistry: Employed in the detection and quantification of metal ions (e.g., copper, cobalt, iron) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to its catalytic oxidation.
• Biotechnology Research: Utilized in studies of oxidative stress, phagocytosis, and other cellular processes where light emission serves as a measurable output.
• Environmental Monitoring: Applied in assays for detecting specific pollutants or enzymatic activities in environmental samples.
• Laboratory Reagent: Serves as a standard and key ingredient for preparing chemiluminescent substrates and solutions in quality control and R&D settings.
