Biotin Hydrazide is a carbohydrate reactive biotinylation reagent. Biotin Hydrazide is used for labeling mouse monoclonal antibodies, unpaired cytosine residues in nucleic acids and it is also used fo coupling to glycoproteins through the carbohydrate by hydrazone formation.Carbohydrate reactivebiotin hydrazide is a a simplest hydrazide-activated biotinylation reagentMicroscopy studies on membranesAlternative names : Biotin-hydrazide,Hydrazide-activated biotinReactive groups Hydrazide, reacts with aldehydes at pH 4 to 6Click here to view chemical structures of Hydrazide-Biotin compounds.
