Description
N-Benzyl-N-methylethanolamine is a surfactant that has a high capacity for adsorbing proteins. It is used as an efficient method to remove impurities from human immunoglobulin preparations and as an adsorbent in chromatographic methods. N-Benzyl-N-methylethanolamine has also been used as a diagnostic agent for the detection of chromatographically separated monoclonal antibodies, which are produced by activated B cells in culture. The antibody binds to the target protein and then the antibody-protein complex is isolated using a particle agglomeration technique. This method can be repeated multiple times and produce high concentrations of pure monoclonal antibodies.
Chemical Properties
clear yellowish liquid
Uses
2-[Methyl(phenylmethyl)amino]ethanol is used in the preparation of dihydropyrimidinones as sodium iodide symporter inhibitors used to regulate the accumulation of iodide in the thyroid gland. Also used in the synthesis of new class of pseudopeptides as potential inhibitors of β-sheet aggregation.
