N-<wbr></wbr>Hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) activates carboxylic acid groups (on biotin) to facilitate coupling reactions. Biotin-<wbr></wbr>NHS is a compound used to attach biotin to primary amines under alkaline conditions (pH~8-<wbr></wbr>9). For example, lysines on the surface of proteins, including antibodies, are ideal targets for biotinylation with this compound.
