Light-triggered conversion of non-ionic into ionic surfactants: towards chameleon detergents for 2-D gel electrophoresis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Caged non-ionic detergents, comprised of polar oligo(ethylene glycol) and non-polar alkyl chains joined by a photocleavable ortho-nitrobenzyl sulfonate linker have been synthesized and characterized. The light-triggered transformation of such chameleon surfactant from a charge-neutral into a charged form offers great potential to improve 2-D gel electrophoretic separation of complex protein mixtures.

In vitro evaluation of itraconazole loaded vesicles prepared from non-ionic surfactants
This study aims to investigate the capability of forming itraconazole containing niosomes with Span 60 and Brij 58 as non-ionic surfactants. Lower cost and higher stability makes niosomes a more suitable choice in comparison with liposomes.The capability to form vesicles as an itraconazole delivery system and the influence of different factors such as type of surfactant and molar ratio of chole...
متن کاملSome observations on the choice of detergent for solubilization of the human erythrocyte membrane.
Solubilization of the human erythrocyte membrane by seven detergents is described. Components released into the supernatant or retained in the residue were identified by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. Two non-ionic detergents exhibiting little u.v. absorption were more efficient than u.v.-absorbing Triton X-100. Evidence is presented of an interchange between protei...
متن کاملCharacterization of Alkaline Lipase from Fusarium Oxysporum and the Effect of Different Surfactants and Detergents on the Enzyme Activity
Nowadays, there is a tendency of use of low temperature in laundry cleaning for both environmental and economical reasons, which makes the use of enzymes in detergent products indispensable. Since lipases are efficient catalyst both in solution and at the water-liquid interface, they are potentially suitable for lipid stain removal applications in industrial laundry and household detergents. Th...
متن کاملIon-specific and general ionic effects on contraction of skinned fast- twitch skeletal muscle from the rabbit
We used single fibers from rabbit psoas muscle, chemically skinned with Triton X-100 nonionic detergent, to determine the salts best suited for adjusting ionic strength of bathing solutions for skinned fibers. As criteria we measured maximal calcium-activated force (Fmax), fiber swelling estimated optically, and protein extraction from single fibers determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophore...
متن کاملRapid Critical Micelle Concentration (CMC) Determination Using Fluorescence Polarization Analysis of the Physical-Chemical Properties of Detergents
Surfactants are amphiphilic compounds that have a molecular structure containing both a hydrophilic (water loving) and a hydrophobic (water hating) region. The hydrophobic region is usually a long chain aliphatic hydrocarbon, whereas the hydrophilic portion can be composed of an ionic or non-ionic polar group. The physical nature of these molecules bestows the ability to reduce surface tension ...
