    Abstract:
    For the first time, a novel EpCAM aptamer (SYL3C)-DIBO-AF594 fluorescent conjugate was synthesised by bioorthogonal chemistry utilizing a strain promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (copper free click) reaction (SPAAC). The ligation efficiency of SPAAC was improved by freeze-thaw cycles. The obtained conjugate showed target specific binding and aided in the imaging of various EpCAM positive cancer cell lines like MCF7, MDAMB453, Weri-RB1 and PC3.
