    Product Description

    FTAC6 is a detergent that can be used to stabilize membrane proteins. It has a critical micelle concentration (CMC) of 0.37 mM. It has been used in the cell-free synthesis and purification of histidine-tagged MscL, a mechanosensitive membrane channel, as well as in the insertion of MscL into liposomes.1 FTAC6 has also been used in the synthesis of MscL in vitro and preserves its activity.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
