  • Scientific Description
    Chemical. CAS: 85316-98-9. Formula: C15H31NO6. MW: 321.4. Non-ionic water-soluble detergent with nondenaturing properties. Transparent in the UV region. Relatively high critical micelle concentration (CMC) value (79mM/l). Ideal for studying the conformation and function of proteins, keeping the secondary and tertiary structure intact, therefore suited for solubilizing membrane proteins without altering biological activity. Efficiently separates hydrophilic proteins from membrane spanning, hydrophobic proteins. Ideal for use as membrane protein solubilizer. - Non-ionic water-soluble detergent with nondenaturing properties. Transparent in the UV region.
