The DTNB chemiluminescent probe is not substrate but react with a product of reaction of a substrate hydrolyzed by an enzyme: this compound reacts with thiocholine after hydrolysis of acetylthiocholine by cholinesterases. The end products are Thiocholine-thionitrobenzoic-acid and 2-Nitro-5-sulfanylbenzoic-acid which is yellow colored
