Biological Activity
Solvent and concentration: DMSO: 10 mM
The inhibitory activity of dansylcadaverine reflects its ability to serve as a substrate for transglutaminases and to block competitively the crosslinking of fibrin molecules[2].
Dansylcadaverine, a cationic fluorescent probe binds to bacterial lipopolysaccharide and lipid A, and is displaced competitively by other compounds which possess affinity toward endotoxins[3].
