General description

2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride is a colorless water-soluble dye. In the mitochondria of living cells, it is reduced to a deep red, water-insoluble compound (formazan). 2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride helps to distinguish between viable and infarcted brain tissue after stroke.[1]

Application

2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride has been used to stain heart tissue to measure the extent of acute lesion.[2] It has also been used to stain brain tissue to check the size of infarct area.[3]

    1. The long-term solution stability of this product has not been determined. However, product 17779, a sterile 1% solution, has a shelf life of approximately 3 years. Provided that the solution is filter sterilized and stored properly at 2-8°C, a similar shelf life would be expected. Please see the link below to review this product:
