Description

5-Cyclohexylpentyl-β-D-Maltoside 30 is a high-purity, non-ionic detergent specifically designed for membrane protein research and solubilization. This compound is critical for stabilizing and extracting integral membrane proteins in their native, functional state for downstream biochemical and structural analysis. It is an essential reagent for researchers and process developers in structural biology, pharmaceutical discovery, and biotechnology.

Application

• Membrane Protein Solubilization: Extraction of integral membrane proteins from lipid bilayers for purification and study.
• Structural Biology: Stabilization of membrane proteins for techniques like X-ray crystallography, cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), and NMR spectroscopy.
• Biochemical Assays: Maintaining protein functionality in activity assays, ligand-binding studies, and enzyme kinetics.
• Vaccine and Therapeutic Development: Formulation component for protein-based vaccines and biologics targeting membrane-associated antigens.
• Diagnostic Kit Manufacturing: Used in the production of diagnostic assays that rely on membrane-bound receptors or enzymes.
• Liposome and Nanoparticle Preparation: Aiding in the formation and stabilization of lipid-based delivery systems.
