1-Pyrenebutyric acid, 97%, Thermo Scientific Chemicals
Description
1-Pyrenebutyric acid is a fluorescent probe used to study proteins, lipids, nucleic acids and other biological systems. It acts as a UV excitable fluorophore that has concentration-dependent fluorescence. It is also employed as a probe for bovine serum. 1-pyrene butyric acid modified nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (PBA/NCNTs) nanocomposites can be used as a biosensor to detect glucose in human serum sample.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
