UltraPure™ SDS Solution, 10%, 4 x 100 mL - FAQs

SDS is a detergent used to denature proteins leading to disruption of cell membranes and dissociation of nucleic acid-protein complexes in DNA and RNA extractions. It tends to come out of solution at concentrations of 10% or greater, especially at low temperatures or in high-salt buffers. SDS can be resolubilized by slowly heating the solution to 65°C with slight agitation.
