  • Applications

    octyl beta-D-glucopyranoside (CAS 29836-26-8) is a mild, nonionic surfactant widely used as a detergent and solubilizer to help dissolve hydrophobic components in biochemical and biotechnological workflows. It is commonly used to solubilize and stabilize membrane proteins and to support purification and protein crystallization studies. It also serves as an emulsifier and wetting agent in cosmetics and personal care formulations, as well as in household cleaners and cleaning products. In coatings and inks, it functions as a wetting and dispersing agent to improve substrate coverage. In polymer and plastics processing, it can act as a surfactant or processing aid during emulsification or formulation steps. These applications stem from its ability to solubilize hydrophobic components while remaining relatively gentle on biological systems.
