DABCYL C2 amine

DABCYL C2 amine is a derivative of DABCYL (4-((4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)azo)benzoic acid), which is a widely used fluorophore and quencher in various biochemical and analytical applications. The C2 amine modification refers to the attachment of an amino group to the C2 position of the DABCYL molecule. This chemical modification introduces additional functional groups, expanding the range of potential applications. The presence of the amine group allows for further conjugation or functionalization of DABCYL C2 amine with other molecules or surfaces, enabling its use in various biological and chemical studies. DABCYL C2 amine is known for its excellent quenching properties, which make it particularly useful in fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) assays. It acts as an efficient acceptor molecule, capable of quenching the fluorescence of nearby donor fluorophores by transferring energy through non-radiative processes. This quenching ability enables the detection and analysis of molecular interactions, enzymatic activities, and conformational changes in biological systems. Furthermore, the high stability and solubility of DABCYL C2 amine enhance its utility in various experimental applications. It can be easily incorporated into oligonucleotides, peptides, or other biomolecules, enabling the design of probes and sensors for molecular recognition and detection applications.
