CTAB (Cetrimonium bromide)-100g

CTAB (also called hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide) is a cationic detergent that facilitates the separation of polysaccharides during purification while additives, such as polyvinylpyrrolidone, aid in inactivating polyphenols. CTAB based extraction buffers are widely used when purifying DNA from plant tissues.
