2. Applications
Chapso CAS 82473-24-3 is a zwitterionic detergent widely used in biochemical and pharmaceutical research:
- Solubilization of membrane proteins while preserving native structure and activity.
- Component of electrophoresis buffers for protein separation.
- Cell lysis and extraction of intracellular components.
- Stabilization of enzymes and receptors in diagnostic assays.
3. Usage Guide
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Preparation: Dissolve Chapso in distilled water or buffer (e.g., 10-50 mM concentration).
- Concentration: Recommended working concentration: 0.1%-2% (w/v).
- Temperature: Use at 4-25°C; avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures >37°C.
- Compatibility: Compatible with Tris-HCl, HEPES, and phosphate buffers (pH 6-8).
- Storage: Prepare fresh solutions or store at -20°C for long-term stability.
Safety: Wear gloves and goggles. Avoid inhalation or direct contact.
4. Case Studies
Case Study 1: Membrane Protein Extraction
A research team used Chapso (1% w/v) in 20 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4) to solubilize G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) from mammalian cell membranes. The solution was centrifuged at 100,000×g for 1 hour, yielding active receptors for crystallization trials.
Case Study 2: 2D Gel Electrophoresis
Chapso was incorporated into a sample buffer (2% w/v) for resolving mitochondrial proteins. The detergent improved protein solubility without interfering with isoelectric focusing, enabling clear spot detection in Coomassie-stained gels.
