| General description: | Dithiothreitol (DTT), a thiol group protectant, is an excellent reagent for preventing the oxidation of SH groups in proteins. DTT solution is a potent and versatile disulfide-reducing agent. It reduces a disulfide bond by forming a six-membrane ring and initiating a thiol-disulfide interchange. |
