Brand: Thermo Scientific Alfa Aesar H54000.06

Description

CAS: 91-95-2 | C12H14N4 | 214.272 g/mol

3,3'-Diaminobenzidine is used as peroxidase substrate and a reagent for spectrophotometric determination of selenium. DAB is used for the immunohistochemical staining of nucleic acids and proteins. As a dark brown dye, was used as an antibody-specific stain to identify the paired antibodies in breast tissue. It may be used for the synthesis of a useful, linear, Schiff-base coordination polymer.
