| Bioactivity | N-(9-Acridinyl)maleimide is a maleimide type fluorescent thiol reagent. N-(9-Acridinyl)maleimide shows no substantial fluorescence but its coupling products with thiol compounds exhibit strong blue fluorescence. N-(9-Acridinyl)maleimide is used for fluorometrical analysis of cysteine and glutathione[1]. |
