General description

3,3′-Dithiodipropionic acid di(N-hydroxysuccinimide ester) (DSP) is a homobifunctional cross-linking reagent containing a cleavable disulfide linkage. It is typically coupled to molecules containing primary amines by amide bonds buffered at pH 7.5 (6.5-8.5).[1]

Application

3,3′-Dithiodipropionic acid di(N-hydroxysuccinimide ester) (DSP) has been used as a protein cross-linker.[2][3]

Features and Benefits

The disulfide linkage is cleavable by mild reduction.

Caution

Avoid use of reducing agents during coupling reactions.

Exposure of gold surfaces to solutions of dithiobis N-succinimidyl propionate (DTSP) gives rise to the modification of the surface with N-succinimidyl-3-thiopropionate (NSTP) which can, in turn, react with amino groups allowing for the covalent immobilization of enzymes such as horseradish

Disulfide-linked gold nanoparticles (AuNP) were synthesized by reacting dithiobis[succinimidylpropionate] (DSP) coated nanoparticles with glutathione disulfide. AuNP-cross-linking was monitored by the red shift and broadening of the AuNP's localized surface plasmon absorption resonance (LSPR) spectrum. The exposure of the disulfide-linked AuNPs

This paper reports on an ultrasensitive, disposable, impedimetric biosensor for cortisol detection. C-Mab (a Cortisol specific monoclonal antibody) was covalently immobilized via amide bond on the surface of the interdigitated micro-electrodes (IDmicroEs) functionalized with dithiobis(succinimidyl propionate) (DTSP) self-assembled monolayer (SAM).

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
