Product Description
Dabcyl acid, SE is the amino-active form of Dabcyl acid (DABCYL) and is extensively used in the preparation of fluorescent probes containing DABCYL.
Dabcyl acid, SE (CAS 146998-31-4) is the amine-reactive, succinimidyl ester (SE) form of Dabcyl acid (DABCYL). It is extensively used in the preparation of fluorescent probes and FRET (Förster resonance energy transfer)-based probes containing DABCYL as a quencher.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Dabcyl acid, SE is a labeling reagent that reacts with primary amines (e.g., lysine residues, N-termini of peptides/proteins) to form stable amide bonds. It is used as a quencher in FRET-based assays. DABCYL serves as an efficient acceptor (quencher) in the development of FRET-based nucleic acid probes and protease substrates.
ln Vitro
Dabcyl acid, SE is the amino-active form of Dabcyl acid (DABCYL) and is used to prepare fluorescent probes containing DABCYL. The compound reacts with primary amines to form stable amide bonds, enabling the covalent attachment of the DABCYL quencher to peptides, proteins, or oligonucleotides.
ln Vivo
As a labeling reagent, Dabcyl acid, SE is used to prepare FRET-based probes for various applications including nucleic acid detection and protease activity assays. The compound enables the development of fluorescent probes where DABCYL acts as a quencher paired with a fluorophore (e.g., EDANS, FAM). These probes are used in real-time PCR, molecular beacons, and protease substrate assays.
Enzyme Assay
For labeling reactions, Dabcyl acid, SE is dissolved in an appropriate organic solvent (e.g., DMSO or DMF) and reacted with amine-containing molecules (peptides, proteins, or amine-modified oligonucleotides) in a suitable buffer (e.g., bicarbonate buffer, pH 8.5–9.0). The reaction proceeds at room temperature for 1–4 hours. Unreacted reagent is removed by dialysis, gel filtration, or HPLC. Labeling efficiency is assessed by absorbance at the DABCYL absorption maximum (~453 nm).
Cell Assay
Cellular assays using Dabcyl acid, SE-labeled probes typically involve the delivery of FRET-based probes into cells via transfection, microinjection, or cell-penetrating peptide conjugation. Protease activity is measured by monitoring the increase in fluorescence upon cleavage of the probe, separating the fluorophore from the DABCYL quencher. Fluorescence is measured using a fluorescence microplate reader or flow cytometry.
Animal Protocol
In vivo applications of Dabcyl acid, SE-labeled probes include the use of FRET-based probes for imaging protease activity in animal models. Probes are administered via intravenous injection or local delivery. Fluorescence imaging is performed using appropriate excitation and emission filters. The increase in fluorescence signal indicates protease activity in specific tissues or tumors.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Dabcyl acid, SE is a small molecule with a molecular weight of 366.37. The compound is soluble in organic solvents such as DMSO and DMF. As a labeling reagent, it is stable when stored dry at –20°C. Once conjugated to biomolecules, the DABCYL-labeled probes are stable under physiological conditions for extended periods.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Dabcyl acid, SE is generally handled as a chemical reagent with standard laboratory safety precautions. The compound is not intended for therapeutic use. No significant toxicity has been reported for the compound itself, though the labeled probes may have specific toxicity profiles depending on the biomolecule conjugated.
Additional Infomation

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ~5.26 mg/mL (~14.36 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 0.53 mg/mL (1.45 mM) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 5.3 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: 0.53 mg/mL (1.45 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 5.3 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
