CHAPS hydrate, a zwitterionic detergent derived from Cholic acid, stands out as an excellent tool in biochemical and cell biology research, particularly in the solubilization of membrane proteins. This versatile detergent, combining features of sulfobetaine-type and bile-acid detergents, exhibits a remarkable solubility rate of over 50% in aqueous solutions. It serves a pivotal role in stabilizing protein-DNA complexes, ensuring the retention of biochemical activity in solution.
