MW 817.64 g/mol. Chromogenic substrate for dehydrogenases and other oxidases that, like other tetrazolium compounds, can be reduced to produce a colored formazan derivative. Acts as an NADPH-diaphorase substrate that competitively inhibits nitric oxide synthase. Used for detection of alkaline phosphatase in combination with 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl phosphate (BCIP).
