Properties
Description
Cyanine7.5-chondroitin sulfate near-infrared probe utilizes NHS ester chemistry for efficient fluorophore conjugation to primary amines on chondroitin's structure.
Glycan Name
Chondroitin sulfate
Glycan Structure
The glycan structure of chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) composed of repeating disaccharide units. Each unit consists of:
N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (GalNAc) (β1→4 linked)
D-glucuronic acid (GlcA) (β1→71 linked)
Source
Chemical synthesis
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
Chondroitin sulfate-Cyanine7.5 can be used for its potential to explore tetrazine linkages for bioorthogonal inverse electron-demand Diels-Alder reactions.
