DBCO Gold Nanoparticles
Cytodiagnostics dibenzocyclooctyne (DBCO) functionalized gold nanoparticles are suitable for covalent conjugation of any azide-tagged molecule through click chemistry.
The rigid structure of the DBCO allows for quick reactions under more moderate conditions, and eliminates the need for a copper catalyst.
This chemistry confers higher stability in aqueous conditions and the lack of copper greatly increases its overall biocompatibility, enabling a multitude of biological applications.

Our DBCO functionalized gold nanoparticles are available in 9 different sizes ranging from 20 - 100nm, are more than 95% spherical and have uniform size distribution (CV <12%).
For custom sizes, formulations or bulk quantities please contact our customer service department, customer_service@cytodiagnostics.com.
