Desheng takes you to understand the four major characteristics of acridinium ester DMAE-NHS!

Acridine ester DMAE-NHS is a luminescent chemical reagent with a yellow solid powder appearance. Because no catalyst is needed, the reaction conditions are mild, and the reproducibility is good, the application field is very wide. Acridinium Ester-DMAE-NHS is mainly used for: chemiluminescence and immunoassay, receptor analysis, nucleic acid and peptide detection, etc. It also plays an important role in the TSH screening test items and can also detect the thyroid. Understand its four main characteristics.

Luminescence properties of acridinium ester-DMAE-NHS

The luminescence of acridinium ester-DMAE-NHS is flash type, the luminous intensity reaches the maximum at 0.4s, the luminous intensity decreases rapidly in the first 2s, and the luminous intensity decreases slowly after that. The luminous half life is about 0.9s. Changing the concentration of acridinium ester-DMAE-NHS only affects the size of the luminous intensity, but does not affect the time and half-life of the maximum luminous intensity.

Thermal stability of acridinium ester-DMAE-NHS

The thermal stability of acridinium ester-DMAE-NHS decreases with increasing pH and temperature. At room temperature, DMAE-NHS is relatively stable in PB buffer with pH of 5.8, 7.0, and 8.0. After 16 days, the luminescence activity decreased by 1.6%, 3.6%, and 8.3%, respectively. At 37℃, the luminescence activity of DMAE-NHS in PB buffer with pH 5.8, 7.0 and 8.0 decreased by 8.9%, 22% and 42% respectively after 16 days.

Hydrolysis rate of acridinium ester-DMAE-NHS

The reason why the luminescence activity of DMAE-NHS in PB buffer decreases with time is due to hydrolysis, which is beneficial to hydrolysis in an alkaline environment. Increasing temperature is also beneficial to hydrolysis, that is, the hydrolysis rate of DMAE-NHS varies with the pH of the solution. Increase and speed up with temperature rise.

Advantages of Desheng Acridine Ester DMAE-NHS

Compared with traditional acridine esters, DMAE-NHS has higher luminous efficiency, better thermal stability, and stronger hydrophilicity. The chemiluminescence reagent has high photon yield and low background. It is compatible with proteins, antigens, and antibodies. After coupling, the luminous efficiency is almost unaffected, making it an excellent chemiluminescence immunoassay labeling reagent.

Desheng acridine ester DMAE-NHS is a golden yellow powder under normal conditions. The texture is very fine and bulky. The purity of the HPLC method is greater than 98%, no peculiar smell, high sensitivity, high luminous efficiency, and strong stability. .
