Biotinyl Hexylamine (Highly Pure) by Molecular Depot is a biotinyl hexylamine, a biotin derivative carrying a six-carbon spacer ending in a free amine. The free amine allows the biotin to be attached to carboxyls, NHS esters and aldehydes, while the hexyl spacer lifts the biotin away from the labelled molecule. It is used as a biotinylation building block in bioconjugation and in the assembly of avidin-nucleic acid nanostructures. Each unit contains 5 mg. MBP supplies Molecular Depot research reagents to research labs in the United States, Canada and worldwide.
