Scientific Background Information

Product Description
  • Non-ionic detergent for the functional solubilization, isolation, purification and crystallograpy of membrane proteins.
  • Mild, non-denaturing detergent that is used for the solubilization and reconstitution of membrane-bound proteins in their native state and for the preparation of lipid vesicles.
  • Its well-defined chemical structure, small uniform micelles and high water solubility make it superior to most other non-ionic detergents for membrane solubilization. The high critical micelle concentration (0.7%) of n-octylglucoside facilitates ready removal from final protein extracts by dialysis or gel filtration.
  • Used in lysis and solubilisation buffers for bacterial lipoprotein preparations, mitochondrial extracts or for determination of protein content by BCA assay.
  • Can be used in 2D electrophoresis and to improve selectivity of immunoprecipitation of phosphotyrosine modified proteins and to increase the resolution of proteins in 2D gels.
