p-NH₂-Bn-PCTA
This product is a bifunctional chelator containing a para-aminobenzyl group and a PCTA (1,4,7-triazacyclononane-triacetic acid) macrocycle. It enables stable radiometal chelation and amine conjugation, specifically offering compact structure and dual functionality for imaging and therapy.
Key Features and Benefits
-
PCTA Macrocycle: Provides strong, stable chelation of radiometals such as Ga(III) and In(III).
-
Para-Amino Group: Couples efficiently with carboxyls, NHS esters, or activated linkers.
-
Benzyl Spacer: Enhances stability and accessibility of reactive groups.
-
Dual Reactivity: Combines metal chelation with amine conjugation.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in radiochemistry and bioconjugation workflows.
Applications
-
Radiochemistry: Chelates radiometals for PET, SPECT, and therapeutic applications.
-
Bioconjugation: Links chelator moieties to biomolecules via amine coupling.
-
Probe Development: Builds radiolabeled probes for diagnostics and imaging.
-
Drug Delivery: Supports design of radiometal-based therapeutics.
Storage and Handling
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a sealed, light- and moisture-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents; avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
