Glycidyl methyl ether (GME) is used as a solvent for resins, paints, and coatings. It can interact with proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates, allowing it to act as a surfactant and solubilize various molecules. Scientific research utilizes Glycidyl methyl ether as a solvent for the extraction of proteins and other macromolecules from biological samples. It can also interact with hormones and other signaling molecules. Additionally, it is used as a reactant in organic synthesis.
