General description

(11-Mercaptoundecyl)-N,N,N-trimethylammonium bromide (MABr) is an organothiol which forms a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) that facilitates the immobilization of a variety of nanoparticles.

Application

MABr can be used to functionalize gold electrodes to fabricate sensing platform for bioelectronics-based applications. It can also be used in surface modification of gold-platinum based nanocrystals (Au-Pt NCs) that find potential applications in biomedicine and bioengineering.
This ammonium thiol molecule is reporated for the formation of photoconductive self-assembled monolayers.

There is an urgent clinical need for multicolor imaging of single cancer cells (no ensemble averaging) for identifying heterogenous expression of predictive biomarkers. Specifically, the comprehensive characterization of single disseminated tumor cells (sDTCs) responsible for metastatic relapse is the key
