3,3’,5,5’-Tetramethylbenzidine or TMB is a chromogenic substrate used in staining procedures in immunohistochemistry as well as being a visualising reagent used in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA)TMB is a white crystal powder that forms a pale blue-green liquid in solution with ethyl acetate. TMB is degraded by sunlight and by fluorescent lights.
T 1489 (OTTO) 3,3′,5,5′-Tetramethylbenzidine, 99% Cas 54827-17-7 - used as a clinical reagent for testing blood. T 1489 (OTTO) 3,3′,5,5′-Tetramethylbenzidine, 99% Cas 54827-17-7 - used in staining procedures in immunohistochemistry. Further, it is used as a visualizing reagent in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. In addition to this, it is used as a replacement for carcinogenic compounds such as benzidine and o-phenylenediamine.
