Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS) NF/EP/USP

SDS is an anionic detergent used to solubilize proteins. Creates denaturing conditions based on molecular size. Also useful in the preparation of genomic DNA from bacteria. Supplied as a 20% w/v sterile-filtered solution, see S5010-01.||Synonyms:|Sulfuric Acid Monododecyl Ester Sodium Salt; Dodecyl Sodium Sulfate; Dodecyl Sulfate Sodium Salt; Lauryl Sodium Sulfate; Lauryl Sulfate Sodium; Lauryl Sulfate Sodium Salt; Sodium 1-Dodecanol Sulfate; Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate; Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate; Sodium lauryl sulfate; Sodium lauryl sulphate; Sodium monolauryl sulfate; Sodium n-Dodecyl Sulfate; Sulfuric Acid Dodecyl Ester Sodium Salt; Sulfuric Acid Monododecyl Ester Sodium Salt||CAS No:|151-21-3||Molecular Formula:|C12H25O4SNa||Molecular Weight:|288.38||Appearance:|Free flowing white powder||Purity:|≥97% (Assay)||Melting Point:|204-207°C||Identification NF/EP:|Tests A, B, C, D||Color (APHA):|20 (C=10% in H2O)||Solubility:|Clear, < 30 specks/50g (30°C)||Water (Karl Fisher):|≤1%||pH:|8.0-10.0 (C=1% in H2O)||Alkalinity:|≤ 0.6 mL/g||Insolubles:|≤ 1.5% (Alcohol)||Organic Volatile Impurities:|NF Requirements||Unsulfated Alcohol:|≤ 0.5%||Total Alcohol:|≥63.9%||Solids:|As reported||Heavy Metals:|≤0.002%||Sodium Chloride:|≤0.2%||Sodium Sulfate:|≤1%||Flash Point:|180ºC||Density:|0.37||Warnings:|Irritant!||Storage Temp:|Store at RT||Meets or exceeds NF/EP/ USP Specifications
