Beschreibung

N-GlcNAc-Biotin is a biotin analog that is used for the detection of cancer. It is used as an outpatient diagnostic tool to detect chest deformity, asymmetry, and other signs of lung or breast cancer. N-GlcNAc-Biotin binds to the receptor for biotin, which is expressed on many cancers cells. The molecule then emits radiation at a specific wavelength that can be detected by a waveguide device. A recrystallized form of this compound was developed to enhance its sensitivity and specificity for diagnosis.END>
