INFO+:Nitro blue tetrazolium is a chemical compound made up of two tetrazole fractions. It is used in immunology for the sensitive detection of alkaline phosphatase

Nitro blue tetrazolium is used in a diagnostic test, in particular for the treatment of granulomatous disease: (or Bridges syndrome, chronic granulomatous disorder and Quie syndrome) and other phagocytic function diseases. In the event of a defect in NADPH oxidase, the phagocyte is unable to produce the reactive oxygen species or the radicals necessary for the destruction of bacteria. As a result, bacteria can grow in the phagocyte. The higher the blue score, the better the cell that produces oxygen species
