Receptors for benzodiazepines (BZ) and beta-carboline-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (beta-CCE) has been solubilized with decanoly-N-methylglucamide (DMG), a new kind of nonionic detergent. The apparent dissociation constants of diazepam and beta-CCE for solubilized receptor were similar to those for synaptic membranes.

To prepare mycoplasmal DNA template for PCR from biological samples rapidly and easily, surfactants which can solubilize cell membranes effectively were investigated. 3-[3-Cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate (CHAPS) was considered an effective surfactant. This surfactant could solubilize mycoplasma cell membrane without suppressing the polymerase

Solubilization of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, n-propylbenzene, n-butylbenzene, n-pentylbenzene, and n-hexylbenzene into micelles of decanoyl-N-methylglucamide (Mega-10) was studied, where equilibrium concentrations of the above solubilizates were determined spectrophotometrically at 303.2 K. The concentration of the above solubilizates remained constant below the
The protein-surfactant system constituted by bovine serum albumin (BSA) and N-decanoyl-N-methylglucamide (MEGA-10) has been studied by using surface tension, steady-state fluorescence, and dynamic light scattering measurements. It was found that the presence of protein delays the surfactant aggregation, which was

The activity of the enzyme acyl-CoA oxidase (EC 1.3.99.3) is influenced by detergents. At concentrations above the critical micellar concentration, Triton X-100, Triton X-114 and Thesit stimulate oxidase activity. Lower concentrations of Triton X-100 and Triton X-114 render the acyl-CoA
