N- (9-Acridinyl) maleimide

N- (9-Acridinyl) maleimide is a maleimide type fluorescent thiol reagent. N- (9-Acridinyl) maleimide shows no substantial fluorescence but its coupling products with thiol compounds exhibit strong blue fluorescence. N- (9-Acridinyl) maleimide is used for fluorometrical analysis of cysteine and glutathione[1].
