Folin's reagent or sodium 1,2-naphthoquinone-4-sulfonate is a chemical reagent used to measure levels of amines and amino acids.[1] The reagent produces a bright red color in alkaline solutions and is also fluorescent.[2]

This should not be confused with Folin-Ciocalteu reagent, which is a mixture of sodium tungstate and sodium molybdate that is used to detect phenolic compounds.

The Folin reagent can be used with an acidic secondary reagent to distinguish MDMA and related compounds from PMMA and related compounds.[3]
