Thermo Fisher, 28312, Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS), C12

Quantity: 500 g
Unit Size: Each
Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is an alkyl sulfate, anionic detergent used frequently in protein electrophoresis and protein solubilization methods. It is a component of many cell lysis buffer formulations, including RIPA buffer. Typical SDS or lauryl sulfate preparations are mixture of several different chain lengths (C10 to C18). However, protein renaturation and other specialized methods require very specific surfactant and buffer conditions. This particular formulation of SDS is highly purified to eliminate nearly all secondary chain lengths besides C12. Highlights:
• Popular anionic detergent for protein electrophoresis and solubilization
• Component of many cell lysis buffer formulations
• Specially purified formulation is >98% C12 alkyl sulfate
• Contains low levels of hexadecyl sulfate (C16), which inhibits protein renaturation Detergent properties (pure C12):
• Molecular Weight: 288.5
• Detergent Class: Ionic (anionic)
• Aggregation Number: 62
• Micelle Molecular Weight: 18,000
• Critical Micelle Concentration (CMC): 6 to 8mM (0.1728 to 0.2304%, w/v)
• Cloud Point: >100°C
• Dialyzable: No
