| Application: | Triton™ X-100 has been used: • Along with Span® 80 and Tween® 80 in mineral oil for the preparation of oil-phase of microemulsions for PCR technique • As a component of NX buffer which is used to pool and break down the microemulsions after PCR cycling • In the blocking solution during immunocytochemistry procedure • During deglycosylation procedure • For membrane solubilization • For cell permeabilization • In decellularization of porcine heart valve tissue |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Widely used non-ionic surfactant for recovery of membrane components under mild non-denaturing conditions. |
| Features and Benefits: | • BioXtra Grade product for your Cell Biology and Biochemical research • Non-ionic nondenaturing detergent • Superior wetting agent and emulsifier • Highly versatile surfactant |
| General description: | Triton™ X-100 is a common non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier which is often used in biochemical applications to solubilize proteins. It is considered a comparatively mild detergent, non-denaturing, and is reported in numerous references as a routinely added reagent. It is utilized for lysing cells to extract protein and cellular organelles. It can also permeabilize the living cell membrane for transfection. |
