TNBS (2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid) is a highly sensitive and rapid chemical used to quantitate the free amino groups. The reaction of TNBS with primary amines generates a highly chromogenic product that can be readily measured at 335nm.
Supplied as a 1% solution in methanol.
Features
- 1% solution in methanol
- For detection of primary amines
