Description

Tetrazolium Red(2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride; TPTZ) is used to visualize dehydrogenase enzyme activity; initially the tetrazolium solution is colorless but changes to red when it comes into contact with hydrogen. Tetrazolium red is used in a biochemical viability test for seeds. The test relies on dehydrogenase enzymes to release hydrogen ions which subsequently reduce the colorless tetrazolium salt solution to a red compound called formazan. Living cells turn red while dead cells


2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride is an organic chloride salt having 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium as the counterion. It has a role as an indicator and a dye. It contains a 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium.

Triphenyltetrazolium chloride Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

E. Mixing the solid 2, 3, 5-triphenylformamidine IV-1 obtained in step D with 300 mL of dichloromethane and 300 mL of waterAfter the solvent was dissolved, N-chlorosuccinimide (0.11 mol, 14.7 g) was added, and the reaction was carried out at 0 ° C for 5 h;F. The mixed solution in step E is allowed to stand for stratification, the upper layer (aqueous solution) is taken out, and the solvent is distilled off to obtain 2, 3, 5-triphenyltetrazole compound V-1 was purified by recrystallization from chloroform to give 30.2 g (yield: 90percent).HPLC Method E Hibar RT 125-4, 5.0 mum, 4.0*125 mm; gradient elution, 5% to 80% solvent B (0.1% TFA in acetonitrile) in solvent A (0.1% TFA in water) within 10 min, 2.0 ml/min, detection at 214 nm, temperature 35 C.HPLC method E Hibar RT 125-4, 5.0 mum, 4.0*125 mm; gradient elution, 5% to 80% solvent B (0.1% TFA in acetonitrile) in solvent A (0.1% TFA in water) within 10 min, 2.0 ml/min, detection at 214 nm, temperature 35 C.E.
