Octaethylene glycol monodecyl ether

Octaethylene glycol monodecyl ether, is a nonionic surfactant commonly used in various industrial and research applications. It belongs to the family of polyethylene glycol (PEG) ethers with a hydrophilic head and lipophilic tail and is suitable for use in lotions, detergents and solubilizers. Octaethylene glycol monodecyl ether is particularly useful in the study of membrane proteins, where it is used to solubilize and stabilize proteins for structural analysis techniques. In addition, Octaethylene glycol monodecyl ether has the ability to interact with and penetrate cell membranes, so it has potential applications in drug delivery and other medical fields.
