Thermo Scientific™ Triton™ X-100 Surfact-Amps™ Detergent Solution

High-Purity, Stabilized Nonionic Detergent Solution for Protein Extraction and Cell Lysis Applications

Thermo Scientific™ Triton™ X-100 Surfact-Amps™ Detergent Solution is a pre-made 10% (w/v) aqueous solution of highly purified Triton™ X-100, a nonionic polyoxyethylene surfactant widely used in biochemical and molecular biology workflows. This ready-to-use solution is designed for maximum convenience, consistency, and purity, eliminating concerns of oxidation and degradation associated with bulk detergents.

Each batch is packaged under inert nitrogen in low-leach HDPE bottles or sealed glass ampules, maintaining stability and minimizing peroxides or carbonyl contaminants. It is ideal for researchers performing cell lysis, membrane solubilization, or protein extraction under non-denaturing conditions.

Key Features & Benefits

• High-Purity Triton™ X-100 – Precisely formulated and stabilized to ensure maximum reagent quality
• Ready-to-Use 10% Solution – Reduces weighing and dilution errors; saves time and effort
• Oxidation-Free Packaging – Stored under nitrogen to prevent peroxide and carbonyl formation
• Nonionic & Non-Denaturing – Solubilizes proteins while preserving function and structure
• Versatile Format Options – Available in glass ampules (10 mL) or HDPE bottles (50 mL, 250 mL, 1 L)

Applications

• Protein Extraction – Gentle solubilization of membrane and cytoplasmic proteins
• Cell and Organelle Lysis – Common component in non-denaturing lysis buffers
• Membrane Permeabilization – Enables controlled access to intracellular targets
• Immunoassays and ELISA – Used to block or wash membranes and plates
• Tissue Solubilization – Aids in sample preparation for Western blotting and proteomics

Technical Specifications

Storage & Handling

• Store tightly sealed in the original container at 20–25°C
• Protect from direct sunlight and avoid prolonged exposure to air
• Shake gently before use if solution appears hazy
• Use appropriate PPE during handling; avoid skin and eye contact

Thermo Scientific™ Triton™ X-100 Surfact-Amps™ Detergent Solution provides a high-purity, stable, and convenient source of Triton X-100 for protein chemistry, immunoassays, and cell biology. Its nitrogen-sealed packaging and ultrapure composition make it a superior choice for applications requiring low background noise, gentle lysis, and reproducible solubilization of membrane proteins.
