Bathocuproine disulfonate disodium

Catalog No.: A24894
Biochemical Assay Reagent
Bathocuproine disulfonate disodium (BCS) is a highly sensitive colorimetric reagent utilized for the detection of copper ions in biochemical assays. This compound exhibits a bright yellow color and possesses strong absorbance at specific wavelengths, enabling the quantification of trace levels of copper. BCS is instrumental in studying copper's biological roles, as well as in environmental monitoring and water quality testing, where its sensitivity allows for the identification of copper pollution, even at minimal concentrations. Accurate measurement of copper is essential for understanding its physiological effects and ecological impacts.
