2,6-Pyridinedicarboxylic acid (PDC, Dipicolinic acid) is a major component of bacterial endospores, comprising 5-15% of the spore dry weight, and is important for spore stability and resistance properties. 2,6-Pyridinedicarboxylic acid and its derivatives are introduced as a new sensitizer system for enzyme-amplified lanthanide luminescence (EALL), a detection scheme for bioassays, which combines enzymatic amplification with time-resolved luminescence measurements of lanthanide chelates.

Sample Use Guides
Amino acid appearance/disappearance 'profiles' of single bovine blastocysts were determined at 0, 1.25 and 2.5 mM NH(4)Cl (with or without 0.33 mM pyruvate), and with or without 10 mM dipicolinic acid (DPCA; a glutamate dehydrogenase (GLDH) inhibitor) or 2 mM amino-oxyacetate (AOA; a transaminase inhibitor).
