Product Description

5-Br-PSAA is a water-soluble colorimetric reagent for Fe(II) and Co(III) detection. This reagent forms colored complexes with Fe, Ni, Cu, and Co, but not with Zn. The Fe(II) and Co(III) complexes are very stable, and even EDTA cannot remove metals from these complexes. However, Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes are decomposed by EDTA, so 5-Br-PSAA can be used to determine Fe(II) in the presence of Cu(II) or Ni(II). The molar absorptivity of Fe(II) is reported to be 8.9x10⁴ (λmax=558 nm). The 5-Br-PSAA assay is 4 times as sensitive as Bathophenanthroline assay. Dr. Sakai and others determined ppb levels of Pb (ε=98,400) using 5-Br-PSAA by flow injection analysis. Dr. Makino and others determined Cu(II) in 0.2 ml of serum by direct colorimetric detection (λmax=580 nm, ε=64,000).
