General description

2,4,6-Tribromo-3-hydroxybenzoicacid (TBHBA) is an organic compound used as a building block. TBHBA is an enzymic colorimetric reagent to determine the free cholesterol fraction of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in plasma.

Application


  • One-pot synthesis and nano-bio applications: Research described a one-pot bottom-up synthesis technique for a 2D graphene derivative, utilizing 2,4,6-Tribromo-3-hydroxybenzoic acid, demonstrating its applications in biomolecular recognition and nanozyme activities (Pandit and De, 2021).
