What is the shelf life of Sulfo-SMCC (Cat. No. 22322)?

Sulfo-SMCC is covered under our general 1-year warranty and is guaranteed to be fully functional for 12 months from the date of shipment, if stored as recommended (desiccated at -20 degrees C).

How does a product with "No-Weigh" format reduce my concern over reagent stability?

The No-Weigh product format, where small amounts of reagent are pre-weighed and packaged separately, prevents the contamination and loss of reagent reactivity over time associated with repetitive opening and closing of a single vial. This format enables use of a fresh vial of reagent each time and eliminates the hassle of weighing out small amounts of reagent.

We are using EDC to crosslink a protein onto carboxyl-modified beads. We would like to add in a linker molecule to extend the radius of beads to increase the surface area so more proteins can be immobilized. Is this possible?

To provide a linker between the beads and the target protein, you would need a molecule with a primary amine (to conjugate to the carboxyl group on the beads with EDC) on one end and another reactive group on the other (to conjugate to the protein). For instance, sulfo-SMCC (Cat. No. A39268) could be used in conjunction with PDPH (Cat. No. 22301):
The method is outlined below:
1. Conjugate the target protein to the NHS ester (amine-reactive) group of Sulfo-SMCC. This will produce a maleimide-activated target protein via its primary amines (lysines and N-terminus).
2. Remove the excess sulfo-SMCC by desalting or dialysis.
3. React the maleimide-activated target protein to PDPH via sulfhydryls. (Lysines and N-terminus now are connected to hydrazide (amine) group with an extended linker)
4. Remove excess PDPH by desalting or dialysis.
5. React the hydrazide-activated target protein with carboxyl beads in the presence of EDC.
6. Use appropriate buffer to rinse off excess target protein from the carboxyl beads.
