Description

Biotin Dextran

Biotin Dextran is a high-purity bioconjugated polysaccharide used in biochemical, pharmaceutical, and biomedical research applications involving affinity binding, molecular labeling, and targeted delivery systems. It consists of Dextran, a branched glucose polymer, chemically conjugated with Biotin to enable strong and specific interaction with Avidin or Streptavidin proteins.
Biotin Dextran appears as a white to off-white powder that is readily soluble in water and compatible with a wide range of aqueous buffer systems. The Dextran backbone provides excellent solubility and biocompatibility, while the Biotin functionality allows selective binding to avidin-family proteins used in many analytical and biological assays.
In pharmaceutical and research applications, Biotin Dextran is used in:
• Molecular labeling and affinity binding studies
• Streptavidin–Biotin detection systems
• Targeted drug delivery and biomaterial research
• Cell tracking and biological imaging studies
• Immunoassay and diagnostic assay development
• Surface modification and biomolecular conjugation studies
Biotin Dextran functions by combining the hydrophilic polymer properties of Dextran with the high-affinity Biotin–Avidin binding interaction. This enables stable attachment to Streptavidin-coated surfaces, particles, or proteins, making it useful in numerous biochemical and diagnostic applications.
CarboMer supplies Biotin Dextran with defined Biotin substitution levels, molecular weight characteristics, and high purity suitable for regulated research and advanced biomedical applications.
