| Targets |
Dansyl chloride targets primary amino groups in aliphatic and aromatic amines. It reacts with primary amines to produce stable blue or blue-green fluorescent sulfonamide adducts. The compound is used for modified amino acid analysis, protein sequencing, and amino acid analysis. It can also be used to label hydroxyl and carboxylic acid functional groups. Dansyl chloride is a fluorogenic reagent that is non-fluorescent until it reacts with amines.

*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.
