AFG Scientific DTT (1,4-Dithiothreitol) 1 gr – Biochemistry Grade Reducing Agent

1,4-Dithiothreitol (DTT) is a widely-used reducing agent in biochemistry and molecular biology laboratories for reducing disulfide bonds. Also known as Cleland's reagent, this compound delivers reliable results with ≥99% purity for protein studies, electrophoresis sample preparation, and enzyme assays.

This product is used to cleave disulfide bonds in protein structures during denaturation and reduction procedures; it is a standard component in SDS-PAGE sample buffers and recombinant protein purification protocols. The white solid form is not stable at room temperature and maintains its efficacy over extended periods when stored under proper conditions (0-8°C).

Supplied under the AFG Scientific brand, this DTT is documented with CAS No 3483-12-3 and MDL number MFCD00004877, representing biochemistry-grade chemical purity. The 1 g package provides a practical solution for small-scale or frequently-performed laboratory experiments.
