MEGA-9 is a surfactant used in research applications that require the solubilization of hydrophobic compounds. Its amphiphilic properties make it suitable for creating micelles in aqueous solutions, which is particularly useful in the study of membrane proteins and their interactions with lipids. MEGA-9 is also employed in the preparation of lipid bilayers and liposomes for biophysical and biochemical assays. In analytical chemistry, MEGA-9 is used as a phase-transfer catalyst for the extraction of organic molecules from aqueous to organic phases, facilitating the purification and analysis of these compounds. Additionally, this surfactant is utilized in the formulation of detergents for the gentle cleaning of biological materials in a laboratory setting.
