Bromobimane (Monobromobimane) is a cell-permeable, thiol-reactive fluorescent probe with maximum absorption and emission wavelengths at 398nm and 490nm, respectively[1, 2, 3]. Bromobimane (Monobromobimane) reacts rapidly with available sulfhydryl groups at physiological pH and produces a stable fluorescent signal[4]. Bromobimane (Monobromobimane) can be used to evaluate or quantify a variety of compounds containing reactive sulfur or thiol groups, including H2S, glutathione (GSH), proteins, and nucleotides[5, 6]. Bromobimane (Monobromobimane) can be used to label GSH in liver sections on slides[7].
