3 sialyllactose 3 sl

Manufactured by Biosynth
Sourced in United Kingdom

3'-sialyllactose (3'SL) is a type of human milk oligosaccharide (HMO) found naturally in human breast milk. It is a complex carbohydrate molecule composed of sialic acid, galactose, and glucose. 3'SL serves as a structural component and provides various functional properties, but its specific intended uses are not described in this factual, unbiased presentation.

Fluorescence-based Sialidase Inhibition Assay

To analyze the effect of the sialic acid analogs on NanA activity, 4-Methylumbelliferyl N-acetyl-α-D-neuraminic acid (MUAN) (Carbosynth) fluorescence substrate was used, and the assay was modified from the previously published method (Potier et al., 1979 (link); Syed et al., 2019 (link)). NanA (5 nM) was incubated with MUAN (0.003%) in sodium acetate buffer (pH 7) for 5 min at 37 °C in 96-well black clear-bottom microplates (Perkin-Elmer, Waltham, MA, US) in the presence of increasing concentrations (0-800 nM) of 3′-Sialyllactose (3SL) (Carbosynth, Compton, Berkshire, UK) or 2,3-didehydro-2-deoxy-N-acetylneuraminic acid (DANA) (Carbosynth). NanA activity was checked by measuring the release of the fluorophore by measuring 355 nm (excitation) and 460 nm (emission) in the Hidex Sense microplate reader (Hidex, Turku, Finland).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
