Application
N-Hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) can be used in the following applications:
- To synthesize N-succinimidyl 3-(2-pyridyldithio)-propionate, a heterobifunctional reagent useful for protein-protein conjugation and also to incorporate aliphatic thiols into proteins.
- To synthesize NHS esters of long-chain fatty acids.
- NHS can activate the phosphonic acid monolayers immobilized on titanium surface for binding with proteins.
Other Notes
may contain 1-3% succinic acid and/or succinic anhydride

Despite the recent progress in the broad-scaled analysis of proteins in body fluids, there is still a lack in protein profiling approaches for biomarkers of rare diseases. Scarcity of samples is the main obstacle hindering attempts to apply discovery driven

We investigated the relationship between the elastic modulus, G and the reaction probability, p for polymer networks. First, we pointed out that the elastic modulus is expressed by G = {(fp∕2 - 1) + O((p - 1)(2))} Nk(B)T∕V (percolated network
