    Product Description

    WSP-5 is a turn-on fluorescent probe for hydrogen sulfide (H2S).1 Upon reaction with H2S, WSP-5 releases a fluorophore that displays excitation/emission maxima of 502/525 nm, respectively. WSP-5 exhibits a faster turn-on rate and a more sensitive detection limit toward H2S than WSP-1 (Item No. 11179).

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
