A metal chelating agent that prevents the induction of chromosomal aberrations in streptozotocin-treated cells. Acts as a general matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor. Forms a red chelate with ferrous (iron II, Fe++) ion that absorbs maximally at 510 nm. Has been employed as a photometric reagent for iron. The product forms a complex with Fe++, but not with Fe+++. NH2OH can be added to the solution to reduce the Fe+++ to Fe++ for analysis of iron. Due to the compound′s strong UV absorbance, it may interfere with spectrophotometric assays. When complexed with copper, it possesses nuclease activity that has been employed in studying DNA-protein interactions.
