FAQs
What is the shelf life of Biotin-ONP 1G?
When stored at -20°C in a sealed container, Biotin-ONP remains stable for up to 24 months. Always check the certificate of analysis for batch-specific details.
Can I use Biotin-ONP for in vivo studies?
This product is intended for in vitro research applications. For in vivo use, consult Merck’s technical support or explore their dedicated in vivo-grade reagents.
How does Biotin-ONP compare to NHS-biotin?
Biotin-ONP offers higher stability in aqueous solutions and is less prone to hydrolysis compared to NHS esters, making it ideal for longer labeling reactions.
What is the recommended solvent for dissolving Biotin-ONP?
DMSO or DMF are commonly used solvents. For aqueous solutions, a small percentage of organic solvent (e.g., 10% DMSO) may be required.
Does eqipped provide a certificate of analysis with this product?
Yes, every Biotin-ONP order from eqipped includes a Merck-supplied COA with purity data, storage conditions, and batch-specific information.
