Description

The new DIBMA 6 is not only smaller than its predecessors (DIBMA 10 and DIBMA 12) but together with Sulfo-DIBMA belongs to a new generation of DIBMA’s which are RAFT polymerized. This achieves a reduction in both monomer size and lower polydispersity, meaning that if you need your copolymers to all have a similar size this is the copolymer to choose.

DIBMA 6 Fluorescein

This first-of-its-kind, functionalized version of our classic DIBMA 6 is fluorescently labeled with fluorescein. This means a pH-dependent fluorescent excitation at ~485 nm and emission maximum at ~510 nm.

Suitable applications for fluorescent copolymers:
  • Detection
  • Localization (Visualization via fluorescent microscopy)
  • etc.

If you’re interested in having this functionalization applied to a different copolymer backbone, get in touch with us and we’ll get that project running for you: Contact us

Lab Results

Molecular Size Distribution of DIBMA 6 Nanodiscs
Fig. 1: Size distribution of DIBMA 6 copolymers synthesized via RAFT compared to other copolymers synthesized via classical methods. Shown is the reduction in both monomer size and lower polydispersity for RAFT synthesized DIBMA 6.
DIBMA Variants Comparison
Fig. 2: Rho-tagged membrane protein has been solubilized and stabilized from celll membrane in one step at 23°C with an array of DIBMA copolymer variants including the new DIBMA 6 (here without fluorescein functionalization). Protein of interest was purified at 23°C from solubilizate via Rho-Magbeads, eluates were analysed via SDS-Page and Western-blot.
