AdipoGen Violuric acid monohydrate

Supplier: AdipoGen CDXV0006G010
Chemical. CAS 26351-19-9. Formula C4H3N3O4 . H2O. Molecular Weight 175.1. Violuric acid has been used as an analytical reagent for spectrophotometric detection of cations, chromatographic separation and for cation oxidation .e.g Co2, Cu2, Fe2, etc. Violuric acid forms solid complexes chelates with many different cations and has attracted attention because simple salts of the violurate anion are deeply colored. The colours depend on the hydrate and the ratio of acid to cation, pH, temperature. Violuric acid is a redox mediator, and is used as reporter assay for assessing redox potentials during protein engineering. Violuric acid is effectively oxidized only by high-redox potential laccases HRPLs due to its high-redox potential. New colorimetric screening assays for the directed evolution of fungal laccases to improve the conversion of plant biomass have been described.
