Reducing Reagents
The reduction of disulfide bridges in protein is a routinely used technique in proteomics and is involved in protein denaturation, solubilization, protection of protein thiols, characterization of protein (disulfide bonds), separation and study of protein subunits, and protein activation for cross-linking.
Numerous protein reductants, including DTT, ß-mercaptoethanol and TCEP (Tris (2-carboxyethyl) phosphine) are offered in different formats, including powders, solutions and OneQuant™ formats.
