Biotin-SLC-NHS Ester
This product is a sulfo-long-chain biotin reagent featuring an NHS ester for rapid and efficient amine conjugation. The long-chain, sulfonated spacer enhances water solubility, reduces steric hindrance, and improves accessibility, making it especially ideal for biotinylation of proteins, antibodies, and biomolecules in aqueous systems.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
Biotin Moiety: Provides strong avidin/streptavidin binding for detection and purification.
-
NHS Ester: Couples efficiently with primary amines under mild conditions.
-
SLC Spacer: Long-chain, sulfonated PEG-like structure improves solubility and accessibility.
-
High Affinity + Solubility: Enables efficient labeling in aqueous buffers.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in biotinylation workflows.
Applications:
-
Protein Labeling: Biotinylates antibodies, enzymes, and other amine-containing proteins.
-
Aqueous Bioconjugation: Ideal for reactions performed in physiological buffers.
-
Diagnostics: Used in ELISA, Western blotting, and immunoprecipitation assays.
-
Purification: Facilitates streptavidin-based capture and affinity separations.
Storage and Handling:
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a tightly sealed, light- and moisture-protected container.
-
Handling: Use freshly prepared solutions; avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles.
This product combines high-affinity biotin binding with sulfonated spacer solubility, offering reliable and efficient protein labeling for biochemical assays and conjugation.
