Bathocuproine
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Bathocuproine is a phenanthroline chelator that binds specifically to Cu+. Bathocuproine preferentially binds Cu+ over Cu2+ to form a chromogenic complex, which is used to detect the oxidation state of copper in biomolecules. Bathocuproine undergoes concentration-dependent self-association to form dimers, and it can engage in aromatic stacking interactions with aromatic residues of Aβ (Kd ≈ 1 mM). Bathocuproine is applicable to research related to Alzheimer's disease.

In Vitro
Bathocuproine (0.32-3.16 mM) undergoes reversible monomer-dimer self-association in aqueous solution at 25 °C, with an association constant of 0.64 mM-1.
Bathocuproine (0.32-3.16 mM) binds to the Aβ40 peptide only in its dimeric form in aqueous solution at 25 °C, with a dissociation constant of approximately 1 mM under conditions where the dimer accounts for ≥ 40% of the total[2].

Alzheimer’s Disease Modeling
Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a progressive decline in cognitive functions and loss of specific types of neurons and synapses. Alzheimer's symptoms can be simulated in mice by injecting drugs (such as Aβ) or genetically modified.
