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.
Triton™ X-100 has been used:
• In immunohistochemistry for staining the Flat-mount retinas
• Along with ice-cold PBS (phosphate buffered saline) in suspension of cells for cell DNA analysis and Annexin V assay
• To permeabilise cells during Immunofluorescent microscopic studies
• As a positive control in LDH assay to determine the cell membrane integrity
• For estimating the lipase activity in postheparin plasma by using modified Belfrage and Vaughan radioenzymatic procedure
• For the preparation of outer membrane protein exctract
• As a component of extraction buffer along with tris-HCl, NaCl, CaCl2, ZnCl2, Brij 35 for homogenization of mice lung cells
• In the treatment of tissue sections for Immunofluorescence labelingPlease contact us at for specific academic pricing.
