CHAPS (Standard)

CHAPS (Standard) is the analytical standard of CHAPS. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. CHAPS, a derivative of Cholic acid, is a zwitterionic detergent for solubilizing membrane proteins. CHAPS is used for stabilization of various protein-DNA complexes and can retain biochemical activity of proteins in solution[1][2].
