What makes us special

We employ a unique & tailor-made method to give you the edge

Calixar’s DDG is in a powder application and is used in an aqueous solution or buffer. DDG can be coupled with biological elements (biological membranes).

Our clients use DDG to help create lipid detergents, mixed micelles, and protein detergent micelles. DDG empowers clients to extract, to solubilize and to stabilize native and functional membrane proteins.

DDG is a very moderate detergent used to extract, solubilize and stabilize native membrane proteins non-ionically. Consequently, it is not sensitive to ionic strength or pH variations which are ideal to extract, to solubilize and to stabilize specific membrane proteins of exceptional medical relevance.

CALIXAR’s DDG is non-ionic and hence is not sensitive to ionic strengths or pH variations. It is well conformed to extract, to solubilize and to stabilize specific membrane proteins.

CALIXAR’s DDG extract high-quality membrane proteins used for research, drug discovery including structural studies and are adapted for use in pharmaceutical, biotechnology companies, as well as for academic teams (biochemists, structural biologists, pharmacologists, virologists) that are involved in the life science fields.
