{"product_id":"2-mercaptoethanol","title":"2-Mercaptoethanol","description":"\u003cp\u003e2-Mercaptoethanol, also known as 2-Hydroxy-1-Ethanethiol or Beta-Mercaptoethanol, is a hybrid of Ethylene glycol and 1,2-Ethanedithiol. This popular reducing agent is used to reduce disulfide bonds in biological applications. 2-Mercaptoethanol can denature certain proteins, while preventing sulfhydryl oxidation in others. This makes this product an ideal component in SDS-PAGE sample buffers.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eDuring RNA isolation, Beta-Mercaptoethanol can be effective in eliminating ribonuclease, as this ≥99% pure product is inherently DNase, RNase, and Protease free. This reagent has been observed to increase growth rates on in vitro cells by enhancing their ability to utilize cysteine.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis Biotechnology Grade reagent is provided as a liquid at 14.3M to be added directly to a number of aqueous buffers, with no filtration needed. Caution is advised, as 2-Mercaptoethanol can be toxic if inhaled. bioWORLD also provides some popular, less-toxic alternatives to Beta-Mercaptoethanol, such as DTT and TCEP. You can purchase 2-Mercaptoethanol in a ready-to-use 2X, 4X, or 6X Laemmli-SDS Sample Buffer, Reducing , as a well as a Tricine-SDS Sample Buffer, 2X.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ebioWORLD's products are supplied for LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY.
