Caps, the full name of 3-cyclohexylaminopropane sulfonic acid, is known by more people as a biological buffer to stabilize the pH value. You may not know that caps is not only widely used in biochemical analysis and in vitro diagnosis industry, but also in nucleic acid extraction and water-based coating market.

3-cyclohexylaminopropane sulfonic acid (CAPS) is mainly used in biochemical diagnostic kits, DNA / RNA extraction kits and PCR diagnostic kits. 3-cyclohexylaminopropane sulfonic acid (CAPS) can also support alkaline phosphatase activity and inhibit the growth of Aeromonas at pH 10.5, and can be dissolved in deionized water and adjusted to pH 11.0 for purification of fibronectin.

Desheng biological buffer caps

In nucleic acid extraction, 3-cyclohexylaminopropane sulfonic acid (CAPS) and 3 - [(3-cholamidopropyl) dimethylammonium] - 1-propanesulfonate (chaps), 3 - (cyclohexylamino) - 2-hydroxy-1-propanesulfonate (capso), and 2 - (cyclohexylamino) ethanesulfonate (ches) were used to prepare the solution for nucleic acid hybridization, which could reduce the yield of non-specific hybridization products, improve the specificity of nucleic acid hybridization, and maintain the stability of nucleic acid hybridization The yield of the target hybrid product was determined. It has important value in the identification of specific pathogens, the diagnosis of genetic diseases and the analysis of gene sequences.

In addition, caps can also be used in a variety of environment-friendly high-quality waterborne two-component polyurethane coatings. Many coatings do not perform well in terms of dryness, curing and chemical resistance, while caps performs well. It can be used as water-based isohydric ester curing agent and can coexist with resins containing active groups (hydroxyl, carboxyl, amine, epoxy, etc.) for a long time at room temperature. This is one of the reasons why caps is more and more favored by the water-based coatings market.

Desheng has rich experience in the production and research of cyclohexylaminopropane sulfonic acid and other biological buffers. Caps is not only widely praised in the field of biochemical industry, but also widely used in the new paint market. Its application in the chemical industry is also rising with the rapid development of the medical industry.
