TCI C1578 CHAPS (CAS 75621-03-3) is a zwitterionic, bile-acid-derived surfactant widely used for the gentle solubilisation of hydrophobic components. Its steroid backbone paired with a dual-charged head group gives it strong solubilising power while remaining net-neutral in charge under common working conditions. Typical applications include membrane protein extraction, two-dimensional electrophoresis sample preparation, buffer formulation, and polymer interface studies. AMI Scientific offers this TCI reagent in convenient 1 g and 5 g packages; please refer to the official TCI documentation for full technical and safety information.
