Biotin hydrazide is a biotinyl derivative used to label surface functional groups, antibodies, lectins, sugars, nucleic acids, or molecules with free carboxylic or keto groups. Biotin hydrazide is used as a probe for determining protein carbonylation, an irreversible posttranslational modification resulting from the actions of reactive oxygen species or lipid oxidation products. The reaction of this probe is direct and does not require catalysts or reducing agents.
