Bis(dimethylamino)-dimethyl silane has been used to silanize pH-sensitive microelectrodes, used to measure the membrane potential in oocytes, in an experimental procedure aimed towards cloning and characterizing human electrogenic Na+-cotransporter isoform (hhNBC). It is also used for microelectrode measurements, in a study conducted to measure carbon dioxide transport through membranes. It is also used in electronic film deposition.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
