CAS 85679-56-7

dexamethasone-biotin labeled

Description:

Dexamethasone-biotin labeled, with the CAS number 85679-56-7, is a synthetic glucocorticoid that combines the anti-inflammatory properties of dexamethasone with the biotin moiety, allowing for easy detection and purification in biochemical assays. Dexamethasone itself is a potent corticosteroid used to treat various inflammatory and autoimmune conditions, while the biotin label facilitates its use in applications such as affinity chromatography and enzyme-linked assays due to biotin's strong binding affinity for avidin or streptavidin. This compound typically exhibits characteristics such as high solubility in organic solvents and moderate solubility in water, depending on the specific formulation. Its molecular structure includes a steroid backbone characteristic of glucocorticoids, modified to include a biotin group. The incorporation of biotin enhances its utility in research and diagnostic applications, allowing for the tracking of dexamethasone in biological systems. As with other glucocorticoids, it may exhibit a range of biological effects, including immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory actions, making it a valuable tool in both clinical and laboratory settings.
