Biotinylation reagent for labeling alkyne containing molecules or biomolecules using either copper-catalyzed 1,3 dipolar cycloaddition click chemistry or copper-free click chemistry with cyclooctyne derivatives. The azide group reacts with alkynes to form a stable triazole linkage facilitating the introduction of biotin into your alkyne modified system of interest. This reaction is bioorthogonal or in other words compatible with biological systems in that it?s components do not react with the biological environment.
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.
