Talk:ABTS

Backwards reasoning?
As an inorganic chemist with no specific expertise in this area, I request clarification of the first sentence of the third paragraph: "The formal reduction potentials for ABTS are high enough for it to act as an electron donor for the reduction of . . . ." An electron donor is a reducing agent, which is itself being oxidized. So the reduction half-reaction and the sign of the potential would be reversed. Should it read, "The formal reduction potentials for ABTS are low enough"? Robert Richman 14:38, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
