Description
Usually used as Non-ionic, dialyzable detergent for the solubilization and isolation of membrane proteins,and has been shown to increase the resolution of proteins in 2D gels.Octyl-beta-Glucoside is a nonionic detergent that has been widely used for membrane protein solubilization.• A low-molecular weight, nonionic detergent• Effective for membrane protein solubilization• Less stable and less commonly used than octylthioglucoside (OTG)• Can be removed from solution by dialysis• Optically clear; low absorbance at 280nm
