Description

Cymal-3 is a high-purity, non-ionic detergent widely used in biochemical and biophysical research for the solubilization and stabilization of membrane proteins. Its value lies in its ability to maintain protein functionality and structure in solution, which is critical for downstream analysis. This product is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and academic sectors working on structural biology, drug discovery, and protein characterization. We supply Cymal-3 CAS NO 181135-58-0 to the global market, ensuring consistent quality and reliable performance for your most demanding applications.

Application

• Solubilization of integral membrane proteins for structural and functional studies.
• Stabilization of membrane protein complexes during purification and crystallization processes.
• Preparation of lipid-protein nanodiscs and other membrane mimetic systems.
• Use in buffer formulations for maintaining protein activity in enzymatic assays.
• Critical reagent in the study of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and other challenging membrane targets.
• Component in detergent screens for optimizing protein extraction and stability.
• Supporting research in cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and X-ray crystallography.

Quality Control

Our Cymal-3 is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure it meets the high-purity requirements of research applications. Each batch is tested to confirm identity, purity, and functional performance. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided, detailing specifications such as assay by HPLC, critical micelle concentration (CMC), and absence of significant contaminants. We support compliance with relevant ISO quality management standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at 15-25°C. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure the container is sealed tightly after each use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
