Product Overview: Tetrazolium Salt 99% AR (TTC)
2,3,5-Triphenyl Tetrazolium Chloride (commonly known as TTC or Tetrazolium Salt) is a classic oxidation-reduction indicator. In living, metabolically active cells, colorless TTC is enzymatically reduced by dehydrogenases to form a deep red, water-insoluble colored compound known as triphenyl formazan.
Product Code T-08881 from Oxford Lab Fine Chem LLP adheres to strict Analytical Reagent (AR) quality parameters, ensuring dependable performance across botanical laboratories, microbiology departments, and biochemical research facilities.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is Tetrazolium Salt (TTC) primarily used for in laboratories?
TTC is widely used as a redox indicator to test seed viability, evaluate tissue respiration, and detect active cellular dehydrogenases by forming red formazan precipitates in living cells.
2. How should Tetrazolium Salt powder be stored to prevent degradation?
It should be stored in a tightly closed, light-resistant container in a cool, dry place, as exposure to direct sunlight or moisture can degrade the reagent.
3. Can agricultural and research universities procure this product via GeM with GST invoices?
Yes, Apex Labs supplies all Oxford Lab Fine Chem products with itemized GST tax invoices for ITC compliance and supports direct bidding and institutional supply through the Government e-Marketplace (GeM) portal.
