REAGENTS FOR LABELING BIOMOLECULES HAVING ALDEHYDE OR KETONE MOIETIES

摘要

Novel fluorescent derivitization reagents are described that are suitable for coupling to biomolecules that contain aldehyde or ketone functional groups. The method of treating a sample with the derivativization reagents is described. The reagents are particularly useful for labeling glycoproteins or glycopeptides, nucleic acids, and lipopolysaccharides in electrophoresis gels.
