Specificity of ethacrynic acid as a sulfhydryl reagent.
Ethacrynic acid is not an absolutely specific SH-reagent. It reacts rapidly and reversibly with cysteine, imidazole, histidine, and lysine. The reaction products increase with increasing pH. LDH is rapidly and reversibly inhibited by ethacrynic acid.
