Description
Digitonin is a biochemical-grade reagent with CAS number 11024-24-1 and empirical formula C₅₆H₉₂O₂₉. Its molar mass is 1229,32 g/mol, and it is supplied for biochemistry This steroidal saponin is widely used as a mild detergent for membrane permeabilisation, selective solubilisation of cholesterol-rich domains and related cell-biology workflows. Material from manufacturer Carl ROTH is designated for biochemistry, providing a clear identity for method documentation and inventory control. Digitonin’s defined molecular formula and CAS entry facilitate literature comparison and regulatory paperwork. Glass packaging helps protect the solid during storage and handling. Researchers in membrane biology and detergent-based extraction will find this pack a practical source of digitonin for controlled laboratory applications.

Questions about Digitonin, for biochemistry, 100 mg, glass
What is this article?
Digitonin, for biochemistry, 100 mg, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Detergents & surfactants, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Microbiologie.
A laboratory detergent or surfactant, such as SDS, Tween or Triton, solubilises membranes and stops proteins sticking. The average chain length and the peroxide content matter, especially for a protein that a peroxide would damage. A cleaning detergent for glassware is a different product.
A biochemical is a molecule of life, sold as a reagent: an amino acid, a sugar, a nucleotide, a lipid, an enzyme, an antibiotic. The difference from a bulk chemical is that the use is a biological one, and the impurities that matter are the ones that change that use. An enzyme is specified by activity, not only by mass. An antibiotic is specified by potency. Papers are on PubMed. Structures are on PubChem. Strains and lines that consume these reagents are at ATCC.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Biochemicals & reagents. The sub-category is Detergents & surfactants. The catalogue is Microbiologie.
Shelves beside this one are Amino acids & peptides, Carbohydrates & sugars, Coenzymes, nucleotides & vitamins, Biochemicals (other), Enzymes & substrates, Antibiotics & antimycotics and Lipids, steroids & fatty acids.
What should I check before I order?
The technical information on this page is the manufacturer's sheet. Read that, not a rewritten specification.
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
