TCEP Hydrochloride (Tris (2-carboxyethyl) phosphine hydrochloride), 98% purity
TCEP is a reducing agent usually used to break disulfide bonds between proteins as a preparatory step for gel electrophoresis. TCEP has the advantages of being odorless and a more powerful irreversible reducing agent over other reducing agents used for this purpose. It is soluble in water and has a neutral pH. For UV/VIS spectroscopy, TCEP is useful when it is important to avoid interfering absorbance from 250 to 285 nanometers
