CHAPSO | MedChemExpress (MCE)

CHAPSO is a zwitterionic detergent that is thermally stable. CHAPSO is able to broaden the particle orientation distribution, enabling single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) to produce isotropically uniform maps. CHAPSO can eliminate the directional bias of bacterial transcription complexes and help determine the structure of bacterial transcription complexes under cryo-electron microscopy[1][2].
