FAQs

What is EDC HCl used for in peptide synthesis?

EDC HCl activates the carboxyl group of amino acids, enabling the formation of peptide bonds. It is commonly used alongside NHS (N-hydroxysuccinimide) to improve coupling efficiency.

How should I store EDC HCl to maintain its stability?

Store EDC HCl in a desiccator at 2–8°C to prevent moisture absorption, which can degrade the compound. Always keep the container tightly sealed.

Can EDC HCl be used for protein-protein conjugation?

Yes, EDC HCl is effective for cross-linking proteins by forming amide bonds between lysine residues and carboxylic acids. However, optimization of reaction conditions is recommended.

What is the shelf life of EDC HCl from eqipped?

When stored properly, EDC HCl has a shelf life of 24 months from the date of manufacture. Check the label for the exact expiry date.
