Rhodamine B hydrazide is a fluorescent derivative of rhodamine B used as a chemical probe for detection of sulfite, reactive oxygen/nitrogen species, and certain metal ions. It is supplied as a solid research reagent, is soluble in DMSO at 100 mg/mL, and is commonly used in fluorescence-based assays.
- Fluorescent probe with spirocyclic rhodamine B structure.
- Detects sulfite and reactive species such as peroxynitrite and hydroxyl radicals.
- Sensitive to metal ions including copper(II) and mercury(II).
- Molecular formula C28H32N4O2.
- Molecular weight 456.58 g/mol.
- High purity (~99.9%) and supplied in small milligram pack sizes.
