Product Overview
Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is a highly purified anionic detergent widely used in biotechnology and molecular biology laboratories. This biotechnology-grade SDS is specifically formulated to ensure minimal impurities, making it ideal for critical applications such as protein denaturation, SDS-PAGE electrophoresis, and nucleic acid extraction. The powder form ensures easy dissolution and consistent performance in experimental protocols. SDS works by disrupting non-covalent interactions in proteins, allowing for accurate molecular weight determination and protein analysis. Its strong denaturing properties make it indispensable in gel electrophoresis, where it binds to proteins to impart a uniform negative charge, enabling separation based on size. The biotechnology grade ensures compatibility with sensitive assays, reducing the risk of contamination or interference. Whether used in research or routine lab procedures, this SDS delivers reliable results with high reproducibility. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain stability and performance over time.
