Description

Employ the strongest silylator available for carbohydrates and steroids with the Thermo Scientific™ TMSI Silylation Reagent. This silylation reagent reacts quickly with hydroxyls and carboxylic acids but not with amines, and is particularly well suited in multiderivatization schemes for compounds containing both hydroxyl and amine groups. TMSI may be used to derivatize alcohols, phenols, organic acids, hormones, glycols, nucleotides, and narcotics and is excellent for C1–C5 fatty acids in serum and urine.
