DANSYL HYDRAZIDE(Derivatization Reagent) DR111 5-Dimethylaminonapthalene-1-sulfonohydrazide[ 33008-06-9 ] f.w.: 265.3 daltons |
Dansyl hydrazide is used to reduce sugars, particularly aldoses. Aldoses react readily with dansyl hydrazine. The fluorescent hydrazones produced can be separated by thin layer chromatography and determined quantitatively by spectrofluorimetry after elution from the chromatograms.
Fluorometric reagent for carbonyl compounds.
