Dodecyl β-D-glucopyranoside
Surfactant
Dodecyl β-D-glucopyranoside is a non-ionic detergent and surfactant effective in the solubilization and purification of membrane proteins for biochemical studies. It is known to interact with bovine serum albumin (BSA), leading to the quenching of its intrinsic fluorescence. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) for Dodecyl β-D-glucopyranoside and the DG/BSA complex is 2.0 mM and 2.34 mM, respectively, facilitating micelle formation in aqueous solutions above these concentrations. This reagent is valuable for researchers investigating protein structure and function.
