| Description | 4-APC hydrobromide is a potent and specific aldehyde derivatization agent. It contains an aniline moiety that enables rapid and selective reaction with aliphatic aldehydes, as well as a quaternary ammonium group that enhances sensitivity in mass spectrometry (MS) analysis. By utilizing 4-APC hydrobromide, aldehydes can be detected with exceptional sensitivity and selectivity using MS. |
| In vitro | 4-APC hydrobromide detects aldehydes in the low-nanomolar range[1]. |
