Triton™ X-100 Surfact-Amps™ Detergent Solution

Thermo Scientific Triton X-100 Surfact-Amps Detergent Solution is a highly-purified Triton™ X-100 detergent stabilized as a 10% solution (w/v) in variable sizes packaged under nitrogen in 10 mL glass ampules or three sizes of non-leaching HDPE bottles, ensuring their stability and eliminating the accumulation of peroxides and degradation products.

Features of Triton X-100 Surfact-Amps Detergent Solution:

• Triton X-100—a nonionic detergent for use in various protein methods
• Accurate—precise 10% detergent solution in ultrapure water
• Easy-to-use—solution is simple to dispense and dilute for use
• Exceptionally pure—less than 1.0μeq/mL peroxides and carbonyls
• Stable—packaged under inert nitrogen gas in glass ampules or HDPE bottles
