CYMAL-5, 98% (TLC)
Detergent/Glycosidic Surfactant
CYMAL-5 is a glycosidic surfactant characterized by its chiral maltose polar head group and cyclohexyl-pentyl hydrophobic tail. This non-ionic detergent demonstrates a significantly lower critical micelle concentration (CMC) compared to traditional detergents, facilitating its use in membrane protein extraction and the crystallization of membrane proteins for X-ray crystallography. Its unique properties make CYMAL-5 an invaluable tool for researchers working on membrane protein studies.
