Thermo Scientific™ EZ-Link™ Sulfo-NHS-SS-Biotin, No Weigh Format
Description
Thermo Scientific™ EZ-Link Sulfo-NHS-SS-Biotin enables simple and efficient biotin labeling of antibodies, proteins and any other primary amine-containing biomolecules in solution.
Highlights:
- Cleavable analog of Sulfo-NHS-LC-Biotin
- Can remove biotin label by cleaving spacer disulfide bond with reducing agents, such as DTT
- Ideal for affinity purification experiments that require efficient elution from immobilized avidin supports (cleaving disulfide bond releases proteins)
- Long spacer arm reduces steric hindrance for binding interactions

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Yes, we offer Sulfo-NHS-SS-Biotin (Cat. Nos. 21331, 21328). It has a disulfide bond in the spacer arm that can be cleaved with DTT or other reducing agents, thereby releasing the biotin tag from the previously labeled protein. This product is also available in kit format (Cat. Nos. 21945, 21445).
EZ-Link Sulfo-NHS-SS-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 (4 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.
We recommend using EZ-Link Sulfo-NHS-SS Biotin (Cat. No. 21331 or 21338).
The sodium sulfonate group lends water solubility to the reagent.
Note: The actual biotin moiety that is added is identical between NHS and Sulfo-NHS biotins that vary only in the addition of the sodium sulfonate on the leaving group. Researchers preferring a more water soluble biotin be added to their molecule should consider a PEGylated version of biotin.
