Biotin-SLC
This product is a biotinylation reagent featuring a short linker chain (SLC) designed to connect biotin to biomolecules or surfaces with minimal added length. The biotin group enables strong, specific binding to streptavidin, avidin, and NeutrAvidin systems, while the short linker improves accessibility without significantly altering molecular size or function. Its compact design makes it especially useful for probe development, affinity assays, and controlled bioconjugation.
