Product Description: PBD-BODIPY is a probe for the spectrophotometric measurement of autoxidation reactions. Co-autoxidation of the PBD-BODIPY signal carrier and a hydrocarbon co-substrate can be quantified by monitoring loss of absorbance at 591 nm. PBD-BODIPY has been used to measure the activity of radical-trapping antioxidants in cell-free assays. It has also been used as a fluorescent probe for the detection of epoxidation activity.
Formula: C21H19BF2N2
