Product Description
Bromobimane (Monobromobimane) is a non-fluorescent substance that produces fluorescent products when reacting with thiols. Bromobimane may be utilized in labeling thiols.
Bromobimane (CAS 71418-44-5) is a fluorescent labeling reagent used for the detection and quantification of thiols (sulfhydryl groups) in proteins and other biomolecules. With a molecular formula of C₁₀H₁₁BrN₂O₂ and a molecular weight of 271.11 g/mol, this compound is a light yellow to yellow to orange powder to crystal. Bromobimane is suitable for fluorescence applications and is a BioReagent. It reacts specifically with thiol groups to form highly fluorescent adducts, allowing for the sensitive detection of thiol-containing compounds. The compound has a melting point of 159.0 to 163.0 °C. It is light and heat sensitive and should be stored at <0°C.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Bromobimane targets thiol (sulfhydryl) groups in proteins, peptides, and other biomolecules. As a fluorescent labeling reagent, it reacts specifically with thiol groups to form highly fluorescent adducts. This reaction is widely used for the detection and quantification of thiol-containing compounds in various biological samples. The compound does not have a specific therapeutic target but is a valuable tool for studying thiol metabolism and protein structure.
ln Vitro
Bromobimane (mBBr) marks reactive thiols in cells [1] (1) Use ethylbenzaldehyde 100 mM mBBr solution. (2) Add 1 mL of 10% cell suspension to 15-25 μL of 100 mM mBBr solution. (3) After 30-45 minutes at 37°C, perform fluorescence detection.
In vitro, Bromobimane is used as a fluorescent labeling reagent for the detection and quantification of thiols. It reacts specifically with thiol groups to form highly fluorescent adducts, which can be detected by fluorescence spectroscopy or HPLC with fluorescence detection. The compound is used in studies of thiol metabolism, protein structure, and redox biology. Its fluorescence properties make it a sensitive probe for thiol-containing compounds.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Bromobimane is not used as a therapeutic agent. Its application is limited to in vitro research applications. The compound is not administered to animals or humans for therapeutic purposes. Its use is strictly confined to laboratory settings for thiol detection.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro non-cell assays for Bromobimane involve its use as a fluorescent labeling reagent for thiols. The compound is incubated with a sample containing thiol-containing compounds, and the fluorescence of the resulting adducts is measured. This is used to quantify thiols in biological samples, such as protein solutions or cell lysates. The reaction is specific and sensitive, making it a valuable tool for thiol analysis.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for Bromobimane involve labeling thiol-containing proteins in cells. Cells are incubated with the compound, and the fluorescence of the labeled proteins is detected by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry. This is used to study thiol metabolism and redox status in cells. The compound's cell permeability allows for intracellular labeling of thiols.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies are not typically performed with Bromobimane, as it is a fluorescent labeling reagent and not a therapeutic agent. Its use is limited to in vitro applications.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Metabolism / Metabolites
Bromine is primarily absorbed through inhalation, but can also enter the body through skin contact. Bromine salts can be ingested. Due to its reactivity, bromine rapidly forms bromides and may deposit in tissues, displacing other halogens. (L626)
Bromobimane has a molecular weight of 271.11 g/mol and a molecular formula of C₁₀H₁₁BrN₂O₂. It appears as a light yellow to yellow to orange powder to crystal. It has a melting point of 159.0 to 163.0 °C. It is light and heat sensitive and should be stored at <0°C. The compound is soluble in DMSO and other organic solvents.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicity Summary
Bromine is a strong oxidizing agent that can release oxygen free radicals from water in mucous membranes. These free radicals are also strong oxidizing agents and can cause tissue damage. Furthermore, bromine can generate hydrobromic acid and bromic acid, leading to secondary irritation. Bromine ions can also affect the central nervous system, causing bromine poisoning. This is believed to be due to bromide ions replacing chloride ions in the action of neurotransmitters and transport systems, thereby affecting various synaptic processes. (L626, L627, A543)
Bromobimane is considered a safe laboratory reagent when handled appropriately. It is not intended for human or veterinary use. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling the compound, including the use of appropriate personal protective equipment.

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
