Consistent Manufacturing—Batch-specific manufacturing documentation review
Premium Grade TCEP-HCl covers (a) more of the Analytical testing and product characterization, (b) greater batch-specific information and quality assurance reviews, (c) bulk batch sample retention and (d) change control notifications to provide clearer quality and product support. TCEP-HCl is a high-purity, crystalline tris(2-carbonylethyl)phosphate hydrochloride. It is a thiol-free compound that can effectively reduce protein and peptide disulfide bonds while being odorless and stable. . TCEP can selectively and thoroughly reduce the more stable water-soluble alkylated disulfides over a wide pH range.
Advantages of TCEP-HCl over other reducing agents:•
Odorless—Unlike DTT or BME, TCEP is odorless and therefore can be used in Conveniently restore on the laboratory bench.
•
Stable in Air—The inherent stability of the TCEP groups eliminates the need to take any special precautions to avoid oxidation when handling, using, or storing TCEP.
•
Efficient—For most applications, 5 to 50 mM TCEP provides sufficient molar volume to efficiently reduce peptide or protein disulfide bonds within minutes at room temperature.
•
Compatible—Using TCEP, most applications (e.g., Histidine-tagged protein purification, maleimide coupling, etc.) do not require prior removal of the reducing agent.
