PTZ-343 (CAT: I008910), also known as sodium 3-(10H-phenothiazin-10-yl)propane-1-sulfonate, is a phenothiazine derivative with a molecular weight of 343. It acts as an electron transfer mediator and exhibits unique properties in chemiluminescence reactions. In the presence of horseradish peroxidase isozyme II (HRP-II), PTZ-343 reacts with it, resulting in the release of HRP and a PTZ-343 radical. This PTZ-343 radical serves as an oxidizing agent for luminol anions, leading to the induction of light emission or chemiluminescence. Notably, PTZ-343 significantly enhances HRP-induced chemiluminescent light emission by over 800%. Furthermore, it has the ability to enhance soybean peroxidase-induced chemiluminescence, thereby improving sensitivity and lowering the detection limit.
