Bioactivity | L 012 sodium salt a luminol-based chemiluminescent (CL) probe, is widely used in vitro and in vivo to detect NADPH oxidase (Nox)-derived superoxide (O2•−) and identify Nox inhibitors[1]. |
Invitro | L-012 sodium salt, a chemical analog of luminol, gives rise to significantly higher luminescence yield and increased sensitivity as compared to other CL probes, lucigenin and MCLA[1]. |
In Vivo | L-012 sodium salt is well distributed in the mouse body and mediates a strong ROS/RNS-dependent luminescent signal in vivo and is useful for monitoring the development and regulation of inflammation in living organisms[2]. |
