Product Description
AQC (6-Aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxysccinimidyl carbamate) is a reagent for high-performance liquid chromatography fluorescence detection of amino acid (AA) or protein sequences. AQC reacts with primary and secondary amino acid (AA)s to generate fluorescent analogues that allow detection of amino acid (AA)s at picomolar levels.
AQC (6-Aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxysuccinimidyl carbamate) (CAS#: 148757-94-2) is a reagent used for amino acid or protein sequence analysis by HPLC with fluorescence detection. It has the molecular formula C₁₄H₁₁N₃O₄ and a molecular weight of 285.25 g/mol. AQC reacts with primary and secondary amino acids to yield fluorescent derivatives, allowing amino acid detection at sub-picomolar levels. The compound is a reactive probe for the pre-column derivatization of primary and secondary amines, including those found in amino acids, peptides, proteins, and polyamines. It is commonly used in biochemical research for the derivatization of amino acids prior to HPLC analysis.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
AQC targets primary and secondary amines (-NH₂ and -NH-) on amino acids, peptides, proteins, and polyamines. The compound does not target a specific protein or enzyme but rather serves as a chemical derivatization reagent that reacts with amines to form fluorescent derivatives. The N-hydroxysuccinimidyl carbamate group reacts with amines to form stable urea linkages, attaching the fluorescent 6-aminoquinolyl moiety to the amine-containing molecule.
ln Vitro
Many of the drawbacks associated with other deriving reagents are overcome when using AQC (6-Aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxysccinimidyl carbamate), which reacts with primary and secondary amino acids to yield fluorescent derivates (λ excitation and emission at 250 and 395 nm, respectively). This allows amino acid detection at under-picomolar levels.
The in vitro activity of AQC is its function as a derivatization reagent for amino acid analysis. The compound reacts with primary and secondary amino acids to yield fluorescent derivatives, allowing amino acid detection at sub-picomolar levels. The derivatives can be separated by HPLC and detected by fluorescence, providing sensitive and quantitative analysis of amino acids in biological samples. The compound is a reactive probe for the pre-column derivatization of amines.
ln Vivo
AQC is not used as a therapeutic agent. Its in vivo utility is limited to research and analytical applications involving amino acid analysis. The compound is not intended for systemic therapeutic use.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro derivatization assays for AQC involve incubating the reagent with amino acid samples in appropriate buffer conditions. The reaction forms fluorescent derivatives that can be analyzed by HPLC with fluorescence detection. The derivatives are stable and provide sensitive detection of amino acids at sub-picomolar levels. The method is widely used for amino acid analysis in biological samples.
Cell Assay
For in vitro cellular experiments, AQC is not typically used in cell-based assays. The compound is used for the analysis of amino acids in biological samples such as cell lysates, plasma, or tissue extracts.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments with AQC are not typically performed, as the compound is used as an analytical reagent rather than a therapeutic candidate.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of AQC have not been characterized, as the compound is a research-use analytical reagent rather than a drug candidate. The compound has a molecular weight of 285.25 g/mol and should be stored under appropriate conditions.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
AQC is intended for research use only and not for human therapeutic or diagnostic applications. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be observed when handling this chemical reagent.

  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
