IPTG, Dioxane-Free

IPTG, Dioxane-Free (isopropyl-β-d-thiogalactopyranoside), is an inducer of β-galactosidase activity in many bacteria. Functioning as a lac analog, IPTG induces β-galactosidase activity by binding to and inhibiting the lac repressor. This product is used to differentiate recombinants from nonrecombinants in cloning strategies using vectors containing the lacZ or lacZ α-peptide gene.

Formula Weight: 238.31.

Form: White powder.

Properties:

• Purity: ≥99.0%.
• Moisture: ≤1%.
• pH (5%, H₂O): 5–7.
• Dioxane Content: ≤10ppm.
