Maleic Anhydride Activated 96-well microplates allow attachment of amine-containing peptides and other molecules for use in various binding assays. Plates are provided in white, ideal for illuminescence assays.
Features of Maleic Anhydride Activated Plates:• Spontaneously react with primary amines• Covalently attach amino group-containing molecules to the well surface of an EIA plate• Maleic anhydride maintains its integrity and activity for coupling for months under dry, room temperature conditions
Useful for immobilizing peptides and other ligands that do not bind efficiently by passive adsorption. Reaction of the maleic anhydride groups with primary amines (-NH2) results in formation of amide bonds that are stable at neutral pH and above. This bond is sensitive to acidic conditions and thus coating reactions are best performed at pH 8-9, and the reacted plates are best used at pH 7 or higher.
