8-Amino-2-naphthol is a photoactive charge transfer compounds, which can be used as fluorescent probe. 8-Amino-2-naphthol undergoes excited-state proton transfer (ESPT) to form a zwitterion under acidic conditions, where the photoacidity of its hydroxyl group is regulated by the protonation state of the amino group, enabling pH to act as an on/off switch for photoacidity. 8-Amino-2-naphthol is also utilized as chiral organocatalyst.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
