Description
Iodonitrotetrazolium (INT) (chloride) is a monotetrazolium salt used as an indicator dye. It is reduced to an insoluble formazan that is used as a vital dye or indicator of cellular redox activity. Reduction commonly results from the activity of dehydrogenases, although non-enzymatic electron transfer reactions can occur in the presence of an intermediate electron acceptor. INT is commonly used to measure the respiratory activity of microorganisms in a variety of contexts.

Uses
Electron acceptor for the colorimetric assay of various dehydrogenases. Iodonitrotetrazolium chloride (INT) on reduction gets converted to iodonitrotetrazolium formazan, a water insoluble violet colored dye or indicator. Hence INT can be used for the colorimetric assay of various dehydrogenases. Iodonitrotetrazolium chloride has been used for the staining of cells. It has been used as a coupling agent in the enzymatic assay of D-arabinitol.
