Additionnal Information
Thioflavin T (ThT, Thioflavine T, Basic Yellow 1) is a benzothiazole dye that exhibits enhanced fluorescence upon binding to amyloid fibrils and is commonly used to diagnose amyloid fibrils. Thioflavin T is found to exist as micelles at concentrations commonly used to monitor fibrils by fluorescence assay. The micelles of Thioflavin T bind to amyloid fibrils leading to enhancement of fluorescence emission.
Storage Conditions

Chemical Information

Thioflavin T

Thioflavine T is an organic chloride salt having 2-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]-3,6-dimethyl-1,3-benzothiazol-3-ium as the counterion. It is widely used to visualise and quantify the presence of amyloids, both in vitro and in vivo. It has a role as a geroprotector, a fluorochrome and a histological dye. It contains a thioflavin T cation.
