Sodium dodecyl sulfate
Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is a biologically inert anionic surfactant widely used as a pharmaceutical excipient to enhance drug solubility and formulation stability. It is a fundamental reagent in biochemical research for protein denaturation in electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and for lysing cells in both in vitro and in vivo sample preparation.
