- Additional Names:
- (+)-Biocytin
- CAS Number:
- 576-19-2
- Extra Details:
- Biocytin is a conjugate of D-biotin and L-lysine; where the carboxylate of D-biotin is coupled with the -amine of L-lysine via a secondary amide bond. Biocytin is a classical neuroanatomical tracer commonly used to map brain connectivity. Biocytin is used as a versatile marker in anterograde; retrograde and intracellular neuroanatomical investigations and in biotinidase assays[1][2].
