Application

N-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-N′-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride has been used for the formation of FND (fluorescent nanodiamonds)-transferrin bioconjugates.It has been used for crosslinking polyethylenimine to gold particles.It has been used as a carbodiimide linkage agent for coating of carboxylated polystyrene beads with biotinylated BSA (bovine serum albumin).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Water soluble condensing reagent. EDAC is generally utilized as a carboxyl activating agent for amide bonding with primary amines. In addition, it will react with phosphate groups. EDAC has been used in peptide synthesis; crosslinking proteins to nucleic acids; and preparation of immunoconjugates as examples. Typically, EDAC is utilized in the pH range 4.0-6.0 without buffers. In particular, amine and carboxylate buffers should be avoided.
