description Product Description
Octyl beta-D-glucopyranoside is widely used as a non-ionic surfactant in various biochemical and biotechnological applications. It is particularly effective in solubilizing membrane proteins, making it a valuable tool in protein research and structural biology. The compound is also utilized in the formulation of cosmetic and personal care products, where it acts as a gentle emulsifier and stabilizer. Additionally, it finds application in the pharmaceutical industry for enhancing drug delivery systems due to its ability to improve the solubility and bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs. Its mild and non-toxic nature makes it suitable for use in sensitive applications, including cell culture and diagnostic assays.
