Thermo Scientific™ Pierce™ TCEP-HCl, No-Weigh™ Format

Description
Thermo Scientific™ Pierce TCEP-HCl is pure, crystalline Tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine hydrochloride, a thiol-free compound that is highly effective at reducing protein and peptide disulfide bonds, as well as being odorless and stable.
Highlights:
- Reduces even the most stable water-soluble alkyl disulfides
- Effective at room temperature and pH 5 in less than five minutes
- Does not require removal before reaction with maleimide or haloacetyl compounds
- Water solubility of 310g/L
- Resistant to air oxidation; nonvolatile and nonreactive toward other functional groups in proteins

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Yes. We offer TCEP-HCl (1g solid, Cat. No. 20490, 10g solid, Cat. No. 20491), TCEP-HCl 10 x 1 mg No-weigh format, Cat. No. A35349 and TCEP Solution, Neutral pH (5 mL of stable 500 mM TCEP, Cat. No. 77720).
TCEP, Tris Carboxy Ethyl Phosphene is an alternative sulfhydryl reducing agent for protein samples. It is an extremely potent and effective reducing agent for particularly difficult' proteins. It is compatible with the Tris-Glycine gels and NuPAGE gels. It should be added to the sample buffer for these systems. 20 mM final (maximum) concentration is sufficient for samples. You may add alkylating agents, e.g. Iodine (50 mM Iodoacetic acid), to prevent re-forming of S-S bonds but it is not necessary. Do not heat because this will hydrolyze much of your sample. Instead let the sample sit for several minutes at RT and then load.
