4-Aminothiophenol is used in the synthesis of pectin-4-aminothiophenol conjugates and it forms self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) in the development of DNA. It is used in the detection of thrombin by protein recognition using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), which finds applications in silver and gold nano particles. It acts as a linker to thiol (SH) functionalizes multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs).
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
