Product Description
Fmoc-Cys(Acm)-Oh is a high-purity cysteine derivative widely used in peptide synthesis. The Fmoc (9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl) protecting group ensures compatibility with solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), while the Acm (acetamidomethyl) group protects the thiol side chain, preventing unwanted disulfide bond formation during synthesis.
This product is ideal for researchers and laboratories working on custom peptide synthesis, protein engineering, or bioconjugation studies. The 1 kg pack size makes it a cost-effective choice for bulk requirements, ensuring consistent supply for large-scale projects.
When you buy Fmoc-Cys(Acm)-Oh online from eqipped, you get a product sourced from Merck, a trusted name in life science research. Our streamlined ordering process ensures quick delivery, so you can focus on your experiments without delays.
Key Applications
Fmoc-Cys(Acm)-Oh is commonly used in:
- Solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS)
- Protein and enzyme engineering
- Bioconjugation studies
- Drug discovery and development
Why This Product Stands Out
Unlike standard cysteine derivatives, Fmoc-Cys(Acm)-Oh offers superior stability during synthesis due to its Acm protection. This makes it a preferred choice for researchers who need reliable results in complex peptide sequences. The Fmoc group is easily removed under mild basic conditions, allowing for efficient deprotection without damaging the peptide chain.
For laboratories looking to buy FMOC Cys(ACM) OH in bulk, this 1 kg pack provides excellent value without compromising on quality. Whether you’re synthesizing therapeutic peptides or studying protein interactions, this product delivers consistent performance.
Handling and Storage
Store Fmoc-Cys(Acm)-Oh in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption. For long-term storage, consider using a desiccant to maintain product integrity.
Always handle this chemical in a well-ventilated area using appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves and safety goggles.
Risk Note
Fmoc-Cys(Acm)-Oh is for research use only. Avoid inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact. In case of accidental exposure, seek medical attention immediately.
FAQs
What is Fmoc-Cys(Acm)-Oh used for?
Fmoc-Cys(Acm)-Oh is primarily used in peptide synthesis to introduce cysteine residues while protecting the thiol group with an Acm group. This prevents disulfide bond formation during synthesis.
How do I store Fmoc-Cys(Acm)-Oh?
Store it in a cool, dry place in a tightly sealed container. For best results, keep it away from moisture and direct sunlight.
Can I buy Fmoc-Cys(Acm)-Oh in smaller quantities?
Yes, eqipped offers flexible pack sizes. Contact our support team to inquire about smaller quantities if needed.
Is this product suitable for therapeutic use?
No, Fmoc-Cys(Acm)-Oh is intended for research and laboratory use only. It is not approved for human or animal therapeutic applications.
How quickly can I receive my order?
Delivery times vary by location, but most orders are processed and shipped within 1-2 business days. Check our shipping policy for more details.
