Description
5-Bromo-6-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate disodium monohydrate is a chromogenic phosphate substrate with CAS number 404366-59-2 and empirical formula C₈H₄BrClNO₄PNa₂·H₂O. It has a molar mass of 388,45 g/mol. Enzymatic hydrolysis of the phosphate group releases a halogenated indoxyl species that forms a coloured indigo precipitate, supporting visual and photometric detection of phosphatase activity. This biochemical from manufacturer Carl ROTH is applied in enzyme assays, blotting procedures and microbiological detection systems that rely on indolyl phosphate chemistry. The disodium monohydrate form and clearly stated molecular data aid stoichiometric preparation of assay buffers and stock solutions. Life-science and analytical laboratories employ the reagent for alkaline phosphatase screening, method development and related chromogenic workflows.

Questions about 5-Bromo-6-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate dis, odium monohydrate, 2 g
What is this article?
5-Bromo-6-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate dis, odium monohydrate, 2 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Inorganic salts, inside Inorganic chemicals, in Lab chemicals.
An inorganic salt is an ionic solid, a chloride, a sulfate, a nitrate, a phosphate. The degree of hydration changes the mass that contains one mole of the ion. Analytical grade limits the foreign ions. A hydrate and the anhydrous salt are not interchangeable by weight.
An inorganic chemical is a salt, an acid or base in solid form, a metal, an oxide, or an element. The waters of hydration are part of the formula: a hydrate and an anhydrous salt are different masses for the same ion. Trace metals matter when the salt will be used in analysis. Nanomaterials add particle size to the specification. Look the substance up on PubChem. Hazard classes are on ECHA, under the CLP Regulation and REACH. Transport of the dangerous ones is explained by the UNECE.
