UltraMild Synthesis

Some modifications require the use of UltraMild columns, phosphoramidites and reagents that allow for mild cleavage and deprotection conditions. Some of these modifications include:

  • cyanine dyes including Cy3, Cy3.5, Cy5 and Cy5.5
  • TAMRA-dT and 3'-TAMRA
  • acridine
  • etheno-dA
  • 5,6-Dihydro-dU
  • 5'-iodo-dT
  • 5'-OH-dU
  • 5'-OH-dC
  • thymidine glycol

The price of these UltraMild columns, phosphoramidites and reagents along with the price of any modified phosphoramidites will be added to the normal oligo price. In most cases, oligos requiring UltraMild reagents are cleaved and deprotected using 0.05 M potassium carbonate in MeOH. The cleaved and deprotected oligo will be delivered wet in 3 ml of 0.025 M potassium carbonate containing 50% MeOH and 1.0 M TEAA. Since the potassium salts are not volatile, the oligos will need to be desalted before they are used. (Note: If reverse-phase chromatography will be used for desalting, the MeOH content will need to be lowered to about 5% by diluting or evaporating.)

Please see our Modifier Pricing Page for UltraMild reagent prices.
