Lp. Candeias et al., THE CATALYZED NADH REDUCTION OF RESAZURIN TO RESORUFIN, Journal of the Chemical Society. Perkin transactions. II (Print), (11), 1998, pp. 2333-2334
Details are reported on the mechanism whereby NADH can be used for the
reduction of resazurin 1 to give the fluorescent product resorufin 2,
a process requiring the use of a catalyst, such as N-methylphenaziniu
