General description

Triton X-100 is a common non-ionic surfactant and an emulsifier, which is often used in biochemical applications to solubilize proteins. It has hemolytic properties and is generally used for DNA extraction. It is considered a comparatively mild detergent and non-denaturing agent. It is generally utilized for lysing cells to extract protein and cellular organelles.

Application

Triton X-100 can be used in the study of:
  • [SCN]- anion complexation with Zn(II) and Cu(II).
  • Natural water analysis using X-ray fluorescence.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Widely used non-ionic surfactant for recovery of membrane components under mild non-denaturing conditions.
