Applications

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.
