Thermo Scientific™ EZ-Link™ Sulfo-NHS-Biotin
Description
Label antibodies, proteins and other molecules that have primary amines with Thermo Scientific™ EZ-Link Sulfo-NHS-Biotin, a short-chain, water-soluble biotinylation reagent.
- Protein labeling - biotinylate antibodies to facilitate immobilization, purification or detection using streptavidin resins or probes
- Cell surface labeling - biotinylates only surface proteins of whole cells because the negatively charged reagent does not permeate cell membranes
- Amine-reactive - reacts with primary amines (-NH2), such as lysine side-chains or the amino-termini of polypeptides
- Soluble - charged sulfo-NHS group increases reagent water solubility compared to ordinary NHS-ester compounds
- Irreversible - forms permanent amide bonds; spacer arm cannot be cleaved
- Very short - spacer arm (total length added to target) is 13.5 angstroms; it consists of the native biotin valeric acid group only.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
EZ-Link Sulfo-NHS-Biotin is covered under our general 1-year warranty and is guaranteed to be fully functional for 12 months from the date of shipment, if stored as recommended (-20 degrees C). Please see section 8.1 of our Terms & Conditions of Sale (https://www.thermofisher.com/content/dam/LifeTech/Documents/PDFs/Terms-and-Conditions-of-Sale.pdf) for more details.
The No-Weigh product format, where small amounts of reagent are pre-weighed and packaged separately, prevents the contamination and loss of reagent reactivity over time associated with repetitive opening and closing of a single vial. This format enables use of a fresh vial of reagent each time and eliminates the hassle of weighing out small amounts of reagent.
