Description

• General description: Triton™ X-100 is a common non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier which is often used in biochemical applications to solubilize proteins. It is considered a comparatively mild detergent, non-denaturing, and is reported in numerous references as a routinely added reagent. It is utilized for lysing cells to extract protein and cellular organelles. It can also permeabilize the living cell membrane for transfection.[1][2]
• Application: Triton™ X-100 has been used:Along with Span® 80 and Tween® 80 in mineral oil for the preparation of oil-phase of microemulsions for PCR technique[3][4][5]As a component of NX buffer which is used to pool and break down the microemulsions after PCR cycling[3]In the blocking solution during immunocytochemistry procedure[6][7]During deglycosylation procedure[8]For membrane solubilization[9]For cell permeabilization[9][10]In decellularization of porcine heart valve tissue[11]
• Biochem/physiol Actions: Widely used non-ionic surfactant for recovery of membrane components under mild non-denaturing conditions.
