What are Some Common Chromogenic Compounds Used in Toxicology?
Common chromogenic compounds used in toxicology include tetramethylbenzidine (TMB), o-phenylenediamine (OPD), and 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). These compounds are frequently used in immunoassays for their ability to produce distinct color changes in presence of specific enzymes or antibodies. Each has its unique properties and is selected based on the specific requirements of the assay being performed.
