BCIP/TNBT Membrane Alkaline Phosphatase Substrate is an artificially manufactured chromogenic substrate for use in sensitive colorimetric assays. BCIP/TNBT can be utilized in ELISA, in situ hybridization, and IHC. Alkaline phosphatase hydrolyzes the BCIP to 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indole, which is oxidized by oxygen in the atmosphere, yielding a blue dye. In the presence of TNBT, an insoluble dark blue precipitate is formed after a reduction reaction instead.
