IntroductionVicki CaligurProduct Manager, Specialty [email protected]
Detergents have been staples in the research laboratory for over 60 years. A paper from 1946 regarding the isolation of Eschericia coli phage using cationic detergents cites earlier work on the lysis of bacteria and viruses with detergents.1 The ongoing challenge continues for analysis and preparation of proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and small biomolecules in aqueous media. Life may be water-based but its components are not always water-soluble.
Given the vast number of past publications, older reviews of detergent properties and applications are still informative. Recent articles on analysis, isolation, and crystallization of membrane proteins demonstrate detergents
are not obsolete, but continue as important reagents in life science research.2–4
For proteomics applications, the use of detergents focuses on the balance of attributes a detergent provides:
1. The detergent should solubilize the protein.
2. The detergent should stabilize the folded protein to maintain functionality.
3. The detergent must not interfere with downstream techniques. This may be accomplished by either selection of a non-interfering detergent or by removal of the detergent after isolation of the detergent-protein complex.
Since detergents are common, well-established reagents, it is useful to review their suitability for biomolecular solubilization and understand how to use physical parameters for detergent selection in a specific application. Even then, experimentation and evaluation are often required. As stated by Privé, “Despite the large number of detergents that are commercially available, no single “universal detergent” is ideally suited to all biochemical applications.”2

CelLyticsCelLytic reagents have been specifically developed for the lysis of cells from natural sources and bacterial expression systems and to extract cellular proteins, including inclusion bodies, using a non-denaturing environment. Overall protein extraction efficiencies using CelLytic reagents are consistently higher than for other common protocols, such as freeze-thawing or sonication. These proprietary formulations do not interfere with downstream applications such as Western blotting, gel-shift assays, affinity purification, and reporter detection techniques. The CelLytic products are compatible with a wide variety of protease inhibitors, chelating agents, and chaotropes and are available as ready-to-use solutions, concentrated reagents for large-scale processes, and convenient powders and tablets for the lysis of bacterial cultures.
Bacterial Lysis
CelLytic™ B, CelLytic B 2×, and CelLytic B 10×CelLytic B is a highly efficient, yet gentle reagent for the extraction of proteins from bacteria (E. coli). This reagent is a proprietary formulation of two zwitterionic detergents in 40 mM Trizma®-HCl (pH 8.0). Treatment of bacterial cells with CelLytic B results in the rapid extraction of proteins that are suitable for affinity purification and analysis. CelLytic B is the method of choice for recombinant protein extraction and purification from E. coli.
CelLytic B 2× has double the strength of CelLytic B for small volume extractions. Only 5 ml of the CelLytic B 2× reagent is required to lyse and extract protein from 1 gram of wet cell paste. This allows CelLytic B 2× to be used when a higher protein concentration or lower volume is required. The original formula, CelLytic B, requires 10-20 ml of the reagent for 1 gram of wet cell paste.
CelLytic 10× is provided as a concentrated mixture of the proprietary detergents found in CelLytic B, without the presence of a buffering component. This allows the user to customize the extraction reagent by choosing the detergent concentration and buffering components ideal for the extraction and purification of their protein(s) of interest. CelLytic 10× is also suitable for the lysis of yeast and mammalian cells.
Features and Benefits
� Gentle, non-denaturing bacterial cell lysis
� Highly efficient protein extraction
� Compatible with affinity purification

CelLytic™ B PlusFor efficient protein extraction of Gram-positive and Gram-negative Bacteria
The CelLytic B Plus Kit is designed to efficiently lyse cells and extract proteins from both Gram-negative, and difficult to lyse Gram-positive bacteria. This is accomplished using the standard CelLytic B, a proprietary non-ionic detergent in concert with lysozyme, Benzonase®, and protease inhibitors. This complete kit takes the guesswork out of protein extraction from a variety of bacterial species.
Features and Benefits
� Lyse Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria
� More efficient than sonication
� Compatible with affinity purification
� Isolate inclusion bodies for subsequent solubilization
� Non-denaturing cell lysis preserves protein function
Lysis with CelLytic B Plus preserves protein function and is compatible with affinity chromatography. The gentle non-denaturing conditions preserve protein function so that assays can often be performed without removal of lysis reagents. Lysates containing CelLytic B Plus can be applied directly to ANTI-FLAG® M2 and HIS-Select® Nickel Affinity Gels for direct isolation of tagged recombinant proteins. In addition, insoluble inclusion bodies can be isolated for subsequent solubilization using CelLytic IB and refolding using your method of choice.

CelLytic™ ExpressSigma-Aldrich introduces CelLytic™ Express, a non-denaturing and highly efficient protein extraction formulation for in-culture bacterial cell lysis. This proprietary, powder formulation extracts 2-3 times more protein than conventional methods such as sonication. CelLytic Express saves time by eliminating centrifugation steps required for cell harvest and clarification of lysate. In addition, the method is fast and requires less sample manipulations, reducing proteolytic degradation and preserving recombinant protein activity.
Unlike other in-culture lysis products, CelLytic Express is a complete formulation including lysozyme and DNase I. The resulting lysate is completely clear of cellular debris, is immediately ready for affinity purification, and is compatible with products such as the HIS-Select® Affinity Gels and FLAG® Affinity Gel. It also makes possible “one-tube” purifications with magnetic bead formats, such as glutathione magnetic beads. CelLytic Express is unique in that this powder formulation adds minimal volume to the final lysate. It also makes large-scale extraction faster, more convenient and it provides a method that is easier to validate for production protocols.
Convenient package sizes that are pre-weighed powder are suitable for indicated culture volumes.
All the advantages of CelLytic™ Express now in a tablet format. Efficient and non-denaturing in-culture protein extraction.

Detergent Properties and Applications
The key to detergent function is an amphipathic structure. All detergents are characterized as containing a hydrophilic “head” region and a hydrophobic “tail” region (see Figure 1).

Hydrophobic Region Hydrophilic Region
Figure 1. Structure of the anionic detergent sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), showing the hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions.
These structural characteristics allow detergents to aggregate in aqueous media. At a sufficiently high concentration, the polar hydrophilic region of each molecule is oriented toward the polar solute (water) while the hydrophobic regions are grouped together to form thermodynamically stable micelles with hydrophobic cores. The hydrophobic core region of the detergent micelle associates with the hydrophobic surfaces of proteins and results in soluble protein-detergent complexes. Figure 2 is a simple illustration of a micelle to demonstrate the orientation concept. Actual micelle structures are more complex and dynamic, and can change due to detergent concentration and solution composition.1

Biological detergents are commonly used to disrupt the bipolar lipid membrane of cells in order to release and solubilize membrane-bound proteins. Some detergents can be used to solubilize recombinant proteins, while others are recommended for the stabilization, crystallization, or denaturation of proteins. Detergents can align at aqueous/non-aqueous interfaces, resulting in reduced surface tension, increased miscibility, and stabilization of emulsions. Additional detergent applications include:
� Extraction of DNA and RNA
� Solubilization of specimens for diagnostic applications
� Cell lysis
� Liposome preparation
� Prevention of reagent and analyte precipitation from solution
� Prevention of non-specific binding in immunoassays
Detergent Physical CharacteristicsThe concentration at which micelles begin to form is the critical micelle concentration (CMC). The CMC is the maximum monomer concentration and constitutes a measure of the free energy of micelle formation. The lower the CMC, the more stable the micelle and the more slowly molecules are incorporated into or removed from the micelle. The structure of the hydrophobic region of the detergent can affect the micelle structure. An increase in the length of the hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain of ionic detergents results in an increased micelle size and a lower CMC, as fewer molecules are needed to construct a micelle.
The average number of monomers in a micelle is the aggregation number. The CMC and aggregation number values are highly dependent on factors such as temperature, pH, ionic strength, and detergent homogeneity and purity. Slight discrepancies in reported values for CMC and aggregation number may be the result of variations in the analytical methods used to determine the values. Aggregation number values are also shifted by concentration, since the number of detergent molecules per micelle may increase if the concentration is above the CMC.
Ease of removal or exchange is an important factor in the selection of a detergent. Some of the more common detergent removal methods include:
� Dialysis
� Gel filtration chromatography
� Hydrophobic adsorption chromatography
� Protein precipitation
The CMC value associated with the detergent is a useful guide to hydrophobic binding strength. Detergents with higher CMC values have weaker binding and are subsequently easier to remove by dialysis or displacement methods. Detergents with low CMC values require less detergent in order to form micelles and solubilize proteins or lipids.
Another useful parameter when evaluating detergents for downstream removal is the micelle molecular weight, which indicates relative micelle size. Smaller micelles are more easily removed and are usually desirable when protein-detergent complexes are to be separated based on the molecular size of the protein. The micelle molecular weight may be calculated by multiplying the aggregation number by the monomer molecular weight.
The cloud point is the temperature at which the detergent solution near or above its CMC separates into two phases. The micelles aggregate, typically forming a cloudy phase with high detergent concentration, while the balance of the solution becomes detergent-depleted. The resulting two-phase solution can be separated, with the extracted protein being located in the detergent-rich phase. Detergents with low cloud point temperatures, such as TRITON® X-114 (cloud point ~23 °C) are recommended for use with proteins since high cloud point temperatures may denature solubilized proteins. The cloud point can be affected by changes in detergent concentration, temperature, and the addition of salt or polymers such as dextran and polyethylene glycol. Note that the detergent-rich phase is also contingent on the specific detergent(s) and salt concentration; under some conditions the phase may be clear rather than cloudy and be located as either the upper or lower phase of the solution. In non-ionic detergents, this behavior has been applied in the phase separation and purification of membrane proteins.2

Detergent Types and SelectionWhen selecting a detergent, the first consideration is usually the form of the hydrophilic group:
� Anionic
� Cationic
� Non-ionic
� Zwitterionic (ampholytic)
Anionic and cationic detergents are considered biologically “harsh” detergents because they typically modify protein structure to a greater extent than neutrally charged detergents. The degree of denaturation varies with the individual protein and the particular detergent and concentration. Ionic detergents are more sensitive to pH, ionic strength, and the nature of the counter ion, and can interfere with downstream charge-based analytical methods.
Non-ionic detergents are considered to be “mild” detergents because they are less likely than ionic detergents to denature proteins. By not separating protein-protein bonds, non-ionic detergents allow the protein to retain its native structure and functionality, although detergents with shorter hydrophobic chain lengths are more likely to cause protein deactivation. Many non-ionic detergents can be classified into three structure types:
� Poly(oxyethylene) ethers and related polymers
� Bile salts
� Glycosidic detergents
Poly(oxyethylene) ethers and related detergents have a neutral, polar head and hydrophobic tails that are oxyethylene polymers (e.g. Brij® and TWEEN®) or ethyleneglycoether polymers (e.g. TRITON®). The tert-octylphenol poly(ethyleneglycoether) series of detergents, which includes TRITON X-100 and IGEPAL® CA-630, have an aromatic head that interferes with downstream UV analysis techniques.
Bile salts have a steroid core structure with a polar and apolar orientation, rather than the more obvious nonpolar tail structure of other detergents. Bile salts may be less denaturing than linear chain detergents with the same polar head group.
Glycosidic detergents have a carbohydrate, typically glucose or maltose, as the polar head and an alkyl chain length of 7-14 carbons as the polar tail.
Zwitterionic detergents have characteristics of both ionic and non-ionic detergent types. Zwitterionic detergents are less denaturing than ionic detergents and have a net neutral charge, similar to non-ionic detergents. They are more efficient than non-ionic detergents at disrupting protein-protein bonds and reducing aggregation. These properties have been used for chromatography, mass spectrometry, and electrophoresis methods, and solubilization of organelles and inclusion bodies.
Non-detergent sulfobetaines (NDSB), although not detergents, possess hydrophilic groups similar to those of zwitterionic detergents but with shorter hydrophobic chains. Sulfobetaines do not form micelles. They have been reported to improve the yield of membrane proteins when used with detergents and prevent aggregation of denatured proteins.

Detergent Selection TableDetergent Categories
Detergents are grouped into four categories, based on the nature of the hydrophilic head group:
Non-ionic Gentle detergents used for solubilizing proteins while maintaining native subunit structure, enzymatic activity, or other structural functions.
Anionic Strong detergents that often completely disrupt cell membranes and fully denature proteins. They are sensitive to pH, ionic strength, and the nature of the counter-ion. Ionic detergents can interfere with charge-based analytical methods.
Cationic Strong detergents with properties similar to those for anionic detergents. These are used in DNA purification, as surfactants in drug/vaccine delivery systems, and in cleaning and disinfecting applications.
Zwitterionic Electrically neutral detergents that protect the native state of proteins and prevent non-specific aggregation. They are often useful alternatives to non-ionic detergents in ion-exchange chromatography, electrophoresis, and isoelectric focusing.

Physical properties:
CMC (Critical Micelle Concentration) is the concentration at which micelles begin to form (i.e. the maximum monomer concentration). It should be noted that micelles cannot form, even above this concentration, if the solution temperature is too low.
Aggregation Number is the average number of monomers in a micelle. A low aggregation number and high CMC value favor removal by dialysis.
HLB (Hydrophile-Lipophile Balance) is a calculated value that is an indicator of the hydrophilic character of the detergent. Detergents with high HLB values are more hydrophilic than detergents with low HLB values (more lipophilic). A low HLB favors removal of the detergent by reverse-phase chromatography.
Cloud Point is the temperature at which the micelles in a detergent solution begin to aggregate into larger structures that scatter light and the solution separates into detergent-rich and detergent-deficient phases. A cloudiness typically develops in the detergent-rich phase, however the phase may remain clear. The cloud point phenomenon interferes with applications that require optical clarity, but can be used to remove detergent molecules from aqueous solutions. This characteristic has been applied in phase separation for the isolation of membrane proteins.

BioUltra DetergentsThe BioUltra label has been assigned to a group of basic reagents with a well-defined high purity. BioUltra reagents are designed for use in biochemical, biological, and life science applications where large amounts of reagent are required in comparison to the amount of analyte under investigation. The BioUltra reagents have been analyzed for low levels of contaminating impurities and are provided with documentation that reports consistent quality control testing. For demanding applications that require the highest quality products,
we offer a range of BioUltra detergents.
The BioUltra Reagent Certification guarantees:
� Homogeneous appearance (form, color)
� Homogeneous and clear appearance in solution (solubility test)
� Zero residue in the filter test
� Limited UV absorbance at key biochemical wavelengths
� pH value of an aqueous solution within a defined range
BioUltra reagents are carefully handled to ensure a very high quality product at the time of packaging. Cross-contamination is avoided by packing BioUltra products in a controlled environment, void of both dust and moisture. BioUltra Reagents are subject to strict analysis in our laboratories to meet the indicated guarantee requirements.

CHAPS3-[(3-Cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate[75621-03-3] C32H58N2O7S FW 614.88CHAPS is a nondenaturing zwitterionic detergent for membrane biochemistry.
Useful for solubilizing membrane proteins and breaking protein-protein interactions. CHAPS’ small micellar molecular weight (6,150) and high critical micelle concentration (6-10 mM) allow it to be removed from samples by dialysis. It is also suitable for protein solubilization for isoelectric focusing and two-dimensional electrophoresis. CHAPS is commonly used for non-denaturing (without urea) IEF and has been shown to give excellent resolution of some subcellular preparations and plant proteins. Concentrations between 2-4% (w/v) are typically used in an IEF gel.

CyclodextrinsMany metabolically important compounds, such as lipid-soluble vitamins and hormones, have very low solubilities in aqueous solutions. Various techniques have been used to solubilize these compounds in tissue culture, cell culture, or other water-based applications. A frequently used approach is to use cyclodextrin as a “carrier” molecule to facilitate the dissolution of these compounds.
Structural representations of β-cyclodextrin, α-cyclodextrin, and γ-cyclodextrin. The cyclodextrins are cyclic oligosaccharides consisting of 7, 6, or 8 (respectively) glucopyranose units.
The solubility of natural cyclodextrins is very poor and initially this prevented cyclodextrins from becoming effective complexing agents. In the late 1960’s, it was discovered that chemical substitutions at the 2-, 3-, and 6-hydroxyl sites would greatly increase solubility. The degree of chemical substitution and the nature of the groups used for substitution determine the final maximum concentration of cyclodextrin in an aqueous medium. Most chemically modified cyclodextrins are able to achieve a 50% (w/v) concentration in water.
Cavity size is the major determinant as to which cyclodextrin is used in complexation. “Fit” is critical to achieving good incorporation of cyclodextrins. α-Cyclodextrins have small cavities that are not capable of accepting many molecules. γ-Cyclodextrins have much larger cavities than many molecules to be incorporated, and cyclodextrin hydrophobic charges cannot effectively interact to
facilitate complexation. The cavity diameter of β-cyclodextrins has been found to be the most appropriate size for hormones, vitamins, and other compounds frequently used in tissue and cell culture applications. For this reason, β-cyclodextrin is most commonly used as a complexing agent.
Hydrophobic molecules are incorporated into the cavity of cyclodextrins by displacing water. This reaction is favored by the repulsion of the molecule by water. This effectively encapsulates the molecule of interest within the cyclodextrin, rendering the molecule water-soluble. When the water-soluble complex is diluted in a much larger volume of aqueous solvent, the process is reversed, thereby releasing the molecule of interest into the solution.
Sigma’s product line of water-soluble complexes includes cyclodextrins and soluble cyclodextrin-complexes of biochemicals commonly used in tissue and cell culture applications.

AntifoamsAntifoaming reagents have high surface activities at the interface between the air and liquid phases. Antifoams modify the surface tension in the air-liquid interface of a fermentation solution and interfere with stabilizing substances such as protein-based foam.
Antifoams are supplied as two basic types of composition or mixtures of the two. Organic antifoams are of synthetic origin. Silicone-based antifoams are generally considered to be siloxane polymers and are also synthetic.
Since one cannot predict the effectiveness of an antifoam for a particular application, antifoams should be tested to ensure adequate defoaming effectiveness under representative culture conditions for each microorganism. The variables of medium composition, temperature, pH, mixing, and aeration anticipated for the final experimental or fermentation conditions should be used. If the antifoam is not effective under these test conditions either a higher amount of antifoam can be added or a different type of antifoam can be tested.
Note that silicon-based antifoams are known to cause membrane fouling (contamination) due to gel layer formation and/or adherence to membrane surfaces. In addition, the presence of antifoam in a culture medium may inhibit organism growth.
Antifoam emulsions B, C, and Y-30 contain preservatives to guard against microbial growth. Long-term storage of diluted material may diminish this antimicrobial effect and additional preservative may be required.
Antifoam emulsions are typically effective within a 1-100 ppm concentration range.

Silicone AntifoamsThe active ingredient of these antifoams is a silicone-based polymer that has a molecular weight range of 3,200 to 16,500 Da. These products consist of particles ranging in size from 10 to 40 microns, and can be removed by filtration.
The silicone-type antifoams are suspensions and must be agitated before a sample is taken from the container to ensure representative sampling. In order to remove traces of these types of antifoam from glassware, wash the glassware in hot soapy water followed by an alcohol (isopropanol) wash or bleach. Autoclaving may result in phase separation and may require remixing the emulsion. A different emulsifier is present in each of the Antifoam emulsions.

Porozorb™ Cartridge
Analysts processing protein or other biological preparations, sterile pharmaceuticals, foods, or beverages must separate wanted products from unwanted process components.
Porozorb™ cartridges are produced using validated processes, providing sterile, endotoxin-free, ready-to-use adsorbent cartridges that effectively remove detergents (Triton® X-100, sodium dodecyl sulfate, TWEEN®, etc.) or other nonpolar, hydrophobic materials from such preparations. They are appropriate for analytical scale to process scale purification schemes.
A certificate of analysis accompanies each Porozorb cartridge. Cartridges are tested for sterility and endotoxin by an accredited test lab following modified USP guidelines. The cartridges can be rinsed with cleaning agents (e.g., most weak acids and bases) or autoclaved at 121 °C. The polycarbonate cartridge can accept 50% organic solutions during analysis, but must be stored in aqueous solutions.

DOWEX® Retardion 11A8[109766-79-2]Chromatographic resin for ion separation. Useful for removal of ionic detergents (e.g., SDS) from protein samples. It is used for the removal of electrolytes from water solutions, and separation of cations from anions. Desalting occurs by SEC-type mechanism, so column use is recommended for best success.
The Retardion 11A8 is not a true mixed bed resin, but a resin with mixed functionality. It contains paired anion and cation exchange sites (each exists as the other’s counter-ion) that adsorb mobile ions from a bulk stream.
