Properties
Description
Lentinan-6-carboxyfluorescein, referred to as 6-FAM-lentinan, represents an innovative conjugated compound merging lentinan—an immunomodulatory β-1,3-1,6-glucan—with 6-FAM fluorophore. This engineered hybrid capitalizes on lentinan's triple-helical conformation while enhancing tumor suppression via thymus-mediated immunological pathways.
Glycan Structure
Its glycan structure is a β-(1→3)-linked d-glucose backbone with β-(1→6)-glucosyl side branches.

Impurities
No visible impurities to the naked eye.
Solubility
This product is soluble in most organic solvents, such as DCM, DMF, DMSO, and THF, and exhibits excellent solubility in water.
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
Lentinan-6-carboxyfluorescein can be used for its potential to track polysaccharide biodistribution via 6-carboxyfluorescein labeling in real-time fluorescence microscopy.
