Description
2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride is an analytical-grade reagent with min. 98 % purity (p.a.), CAS number 298-96-4, and empirical formula C₁₉H₁₅ClN₄. The molar mass is 334,79 g/mol, enabling accurate weighing for staining and detection solutions. This tetrazolium salt is established as a dyeing agent in thin-layer chromatography (TLC/HPTLC) and related visualisation workflows, where reduction to a coloured formazan supports detection of reducing species. The product is available from manufacturer Carl ROTH for applications spanning chromatography and analytical staining. Its defined composition supports reproducible preparation of working solutions for TLC dyeing protocols. Use under standard laboratory conditions for organic dyes and indicators, and review the safety data before handling, storage, and disposal in accordance with local laboratory rules.

Questions about 2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride, min. 98 %, p.a., 10 g, glass
What is this article?
2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride, min. 98 %, p.a., 10 g, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in TLC, in Chromatography equipment.
Thin-layer chromatography runs a liquid up a plate coated with a sorbent. The compounds move different distances and are seen as spots. HPTLC is the same method with a finer layer. The plate, the solvent mixture and the chamber saturation decide the result. It is the quick look before, or beside, a column method. The substances are on PubChem, named by IUPAC.
Which category should I open next?
The category is TLC. The catalogue is Chromatography equipment.
Shelves beside this one are TLC & HPTLC plates and TLC chambers & accessories.
What should I check before I order?
The technical information on this page is the manufacturer's sheet. Read that, not a rewritten specification.
