| Description: | 9,10-Anthracenediyl-bis(methylene)dimalonic acid (ABDA) is a biological dye and indicator used to detect singlet oxygen generation (SOG). 9,10-Anthracenediyl-bis(methylene)dimalonic acid can be photobleached by singlet oxygen to its corresponding endoperoxide. This reaction can be monitored spectrophotometrically by recording the decrease of absorbance at 400 nm. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
