Application

  • (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane has been used for the preparation of cadherin surfaces on glass slides.[1]
  • It has been used for the preparation of RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp)-treated silicone membranes.[2]
  • It has been used for the preparation of the avidin–biotin coverslips.[3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

(3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane forms aminopropyl derivative of glass, an adsorbent for affinity chromatography. It is used to prepare positively charged slides suitable for use with various immunohistochemical and in situ hybridization procedures.[4]

The restriction endonuclease EcoRV can rapidly locate a short recognition site within long non-cognate DNA using 'facilitated diffusion'. This process has long been attributed to a sliding mechanism, in which the enzyme first binds to the DNA via nonspecific interaction

Physicists have studied the aggregation of adhesive proteins, giving a central role to the elastic properties of membranes, whereas cell biologists have put the emphasis on the cytoskeleton. However, there is a dramatic lack of experimental studies probing both contributions

Questions

1–6 of 6 Questions  
  1. How does Product A3648, (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane, compare to poly-L-lysine for binding tissue to glass surfaces?

    1 answer
    1. This product has been cited as being a better tissue adhesive than poly-L-lysine. Maddox PH, Jenkins D., 3-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APES): a new advance in section adhesion. J Clin Pathol., 40(10):1256-7 (1987).

  3. Can the coating made from product A3648, (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane, be removed?

    1 answer
    1. For Product A3648, (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane, the siliconized coating can be removed by an overnight treatment with 10-20% (w/v) aqueous or alcoholic potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide solutions. It may also be possible to remove the coating by physical abrasion, i.e., scrubbing or vigorously brushing the glass surface. Autoclaving will not destroy the coating.

  4. Can Product A3648, (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane, be used to coat controlled pore glass?

    1 answer
    1. To coat controlled-pore glass beads for affinity chromatography, the following method is recommended:1. Treat 1 g of clean beads with 20 mL of a 10% aqueous A3648 (pH 3 to 4) at 75 °C for 2 hours.2. Filter the beads to remove the solution and dry overnight in a 115 °C oven. See: J. Dairy Sci., 73, 2720-2730 (1990).
