Biocytin

Research use only, not for human use.

Biocytin is a classical neuroanatomical tracer commonly used to map brain connectivity. 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 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.(In Vitro):Biocytin is used as a versatile marker in anterograde, retrograde and intracellular neuroanatomical investigations and in biotinidase assays. Biocytin wide-field bipolar cell is an ON blue cone bipolar cell in the rabbit retina and is homologous to the blue cone bipolar cells that have been previously described in primate, mouse, and ground squirrel retinas.
