| Targets |
Sulfo-NHS targets carboxyl groups on molecules such as proteins, peptides, and small molecules. In the presence of a carbodiimide like EDC, Sulfo-NHS reacts with carboxyl groups to form a stable, water-soluble Sulfo-NHS ester intermediate. This intermediate is more reactive towards primary amines than the original carboxyl group, facilitating the formation of stable amide bonds. Sulfo-NHS itself does not have a biological target; rather, it is a chemical reagent used to modify molecules for bioconjugation applications.

| ln Vitro |
The ADC is made up of a preamp to which the ADC input connects the ADC cytotoxin [1].
In vitro, sulfo-NHS is used as a modifying reagent that, in the presence of a cross-linking reagent like carbodiimide or EDAC, converts carboxyl groups to more reactive intermediates. These intermediates then react with primary amines to form stable amide bonds. Sulfo-NHS is used to prepare hydrophilic active esters for protein cross-linking. It is also used to activate carboxylic acids for coupling, biotinylation, and conjugation with fluorophores. Its water solubility makes it ideal for aqueous protein labeling without the need for organic solvents. |
| ln Vivo |
Sulfo-NHS is not used in vivo as a therapeutic agent; it is a research reagent used for bioconjugation and protein labeling. It is used to activate carboxyl groups on biomolecules for subsequent conjugation to amines. The water-soluble Sulfo-NHS esters formed are stable and can be used in aqueous environments for labeling proteins, antibodies, and other biomolecules.

| Enzyme Assay |
Sulfo-NHS is a chemical reagent, and its "activity" is measured by its ability to activate carboxyl groups and form stable ester intermediates. In a typical assay, a carboxyl-containing molecule is incubated with EDC and sulfo-NHS in an aqueous buffer at pH 5-6. The formation of the sulfo-NHS ester intermediate can be monitored spectrophotometrically. The efficiency of activation is assessed by the subsequent reaction with a primary amine-containing molecule, and the extent of conjugation is measured.
|
| Cell Assay |
Sulfo-NHS is dissolved in aqueous buffers and applied to proteins or other molecules containing carboxyl groups. The reaction is typically carried out in MES or PBS buffer at pH 5-6. EDC is added to activate the carboxyl groups, and sulfo-NHS is added to stabilize the active ester intermediate. After incubation, the reaction is quenched, and the labeled or crosslinked product is purified.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Sulfo-NHS has a molecular weight of 217.13 g/mol and a molecular formula of C4H4NNaO6S. It is a water-soluble reagent. The compound is typically stored as a powder at -20°C for long-term stability. Sulfo-NHS is also known as N-Hydroxysulfosuccinimide sodium salt or SNHS. It is used as a crosslinking agent for preparing hydrophilic active esters.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Sulfo-NHS is considered to have low toxicity for research use. It is a chemical reagent that should be handled with appropriate safety precautions. It may cause skin and eye irritation. Inhalation and ingestion should be avoided. Proper personal protective equipment (PPE) should be used when handling the compound.

| Additional Infomation |
Sulfo-NHS is a water-soluble reagent commonly used in bioconjugation and protein labeling techniques. It is a peptide condensing agent that can form a stable active ester intermediate, used to prepare hydrophilic active esters. Sulfo-NHS is not a crosslinker on its own but an additive used with carbodiimides like EDC. EDC activates carboxyl groups, and Sulfo-NHS reacts with this intermediate to form a stable, water-soluble Sulfo-NHS ester. This ester then reacts with primary amines to form stable amide bonds.

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 0.56 mg/mL (2.58 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 5.6 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.

*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.
