Deoxycholic Acid Sodium Salt Monohydrate is an anionic biological detergent for the solubilization of membrane-bound proteins.
Anionic detergent; useful for extraction of membrane receptors and other plasma membrane proteins and for nuclei isolation. Deoxycholic acid has been used in a modified procedure to recover 40-80% of a protein from a 1 µg/mL solution.
It solubilizes fats for absorption in the intestines.
