Merck, 182750-5GM, ASB-14

General description
A zwitterionic amidosulfobetaine detergent useful for solubilizing proteins visualized by 2D-electrophoresis. The increased solubilization produced by this detergent enables the identification of previously undetected membrane proteins.
Application

Effect of bovine pericardial extracellular matrix scaffold niche on seeded human mesenchymal stem cell function.: This paper explores the influence of the bovine pericardial extracellular matrix on human mesenchymal stem cells, with ASB-14 used to modulate cellular responses. The research contributes to advancements in scaffold-based tissue engineering (Liu et al., 2016).

In vivo xenogeneic scaffold fate is determined by residual antigenicity and extracellular matrix preservation.: Investigating the fate of xenogeneic scaffolds in vivo, this study shows that ASB-14 helps maintain extracellular matrix integrity and reduce antigenicity, which is critical for successful scaffold integration and function in tissue engineering (Wong et al., 2016).
