APTS

Chemical Properties

Brownish Orange Solid

Uses

APTS is a fluorescence reagent that has been demonstrated to have a high level of detection sensitivity for sugars The LOD for APTS-derivatized sugars has been shown to be 0.4 nM when using a 488 nm argon-ion laser. The multi-anionic nature of APTS makes it ideal for the studies of carbohydrate molecules and small hormone molecules by high resolution capillary electrophoresis.

Uses

Fluorescent label for glycoproteins and saccharides.

Uses

APTS is a very useful green fluorescent dye for labeling glycoproteins or sugar molecules in general.
