Ref. 3D-OC01666

Product Information

• Name: Chitotriose undecaacetate
• Synonyms: Tri-N-acetyl-chitotriose octaacetate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Chitotriose undecaacetate is a synthetic substrate that is used in transfecting experiments. It has high sensitivity and can be used to introduce nucleic acid into cells. Chitotriose undecaacetate is used as a synthetic fluorometric assay for the determination of chitinase activity in vitro or as a substrate for cell-free synthesis of nucleic acids. It has been shown to possess moieties that are sensitive to hydrogen chloride and chloride ions, making it an effective probe for the determination of these ions. Chitotriose undecaacetate also reacts with sephadex G-200, which makes it useful for separating DNA fragments by electrophoresis.
