FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of dansyl chloride 99%?
When stored in a cool, dry place away from moisture and light, unopened dansyl chloride maintains stability for up to 24 months from the date of manufacture.
2. Is this reagent compatible with DMSO or methanol?
Yes, dansyl chloride 99% dissolves readily in polar organic solvents like DMSO, methanol, and acetonitrile, but avoid prolonged exposure to water to prevent hydrolysis.
3. Can this be used for protein labeling?
Yes, its reactivity with amine groups makes it suitable for protein and peptide labeling, though optimization of reaction conditions is recommended.
4. What alternatives exist for fluorescent labeling?
Alternatives include fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) or rhodamine derivatives, but dansyl chloride offers distinct spectral properties and smaller molecular size.
5. How should I handle and store this product?
Store in a tightly sealed container under inert gas if possible, and handle in a fume hood to avoid inhalation or skin contact.
