Sodium dodecyl sulfate is widely utilized in research focused on:
- Surfactant in Cleaning Products: Commonly found in shampoos and detergents, it helps to lower surface tension, allowing for better cleaning and foaming properties.
- Biotechnology Applications: Used in molecular biology for protein denaturation and purification, aiding researchers in studying protein structures and functions.
- Emulsifying Agent: In food and cosmetic industries, it stabilizes emulsions, ensuring consistent texture and quality in products like creams and sauces.
- Electrophoresis: Acts as a detergent in gel electrophoresis, helping to separate proteins based on size, which is crucial for genetic and protein research.
- Industrial Applications: Employed in the textile and paper industries as a wetting agent, improving dye uptake and enhancing product quality.
