N-hydroxysuccinimide

Overview

N-Hydroxysuccinimide (HOSu; 1-Hydroxy-2,5-pyrrolidinedione) is a covalent crosslinker commonly used in bioconjugation technology with a primary amine group. N-Hydroxysuccinimide reacts with amino groups (-NH2) to form a stable amide bond, which can modify amino-containing biomolecules. N-Hydroxysuccinimide can be used, for example, for protein labeling with fluorescent dyes and enzymes , surface activation of chromatography supports, microbeads, nanoparticles and microarray slides, and chemical synthesis of peptides. N-Hydroxysuccinimide has a wide range of applications in biomaterial synthesis (such as collagen , chitosan crosslinking), drug delivery systems (such as hydrogel preparation) and tissue engineering.
