CHAPS, ≥ 98% (TLC) by Merck
CHAPS is a nondenaturing zwitterionic detergent for membrane biochemistry. Useful for solubilizing membrane proteins and breaking protein-protein interactions. CHAPS’ small micellar molecular weight (6,150) and high critical micelle concentration (6-10 mM) allow it to be removed from samples by dialysis. It is also suitable for protein solubilization for isoelectric focusing and two-dimensional electrophoresis. CHAPS is commonly used for non-denaturing (without urea) IEF and has been shown to gi...
