The tautomeric equilibria of 2-(4'-hydroxyphenylazo)benzoic acid (HABA) and 2-(3',5'-dimethyl-4'-hydroxyphenylazo)benzoic acid (3',5'-dimethyl-HABA) have been studied by a combination of spectroscopic and computational methods. For neutral HABA in solvents of different polarity (toluene, chloroform, DMSO, DMF, butanol, and ethanol) the azo tautomer

The chicken genome encodes several biotin-binding proteins, including avidin and avidin-related protein 4 (AVR4). In addition to D-biotin, avidin binds an azo dye compound, 4-hydroxyazobenzene-2-carboxylic acid (HABA), but the HABA-binding properties of AVR4 are not yet known. Differential scanning calorimetry
