Naphthol AS-MX phosphate disodium salt
Naphthol AS-MX phosphate disodium salt (CAS 96189-12-7, C19H16NO5PNa2) is a chromogenic substrate essential for enzyme detection in histochemistry. With a molecular weight of 415.29, it is primarily utilised in the azo-dye method for visualising phosphatase activity. This compound is also employed in immunohistochemical staining techniques, allowing for the simultaneous detection of different enzymatic activities within biological samples, making it a valuable reagent for cell biology and diagnostic applications.
Phosphatase Detection
Used as a substrate in the histochemical azo-dye method to detect and localise phosphatase enzyme activity in tissue samples. This allows for the visual identification of enzyme-rich areas.
Immunohistochemical Staining
Applied in conjunction with other enzyme systems, such as horseradish peroxidase (POD), for chromogenic double staining techniques. This enables the simultaneous visualisation of multiple cellular markers or enzyme activities.
Cell Biology Research
A key reagent for studying cellular processes involving phosphatase enzymes. Its use in staining methods aids in understanding cell structure and function at a microscopic level.
Histology and Hematology
Valuable in routine histological and hematological staining procedures for identifying specific enzymatic markers in blood cells and tissue sections.
