Application

Luminol is primarily employed in forensic science for latent bloodstain visualization, reacting with hemoglobin’s iron to emit light. In biochemical research, it serves as a sensitive probe for detecting reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative burst in cellular studies. Additionally, it’s used in environmental monitoring to trace metal-catalyzed oxidation processes.
