| ln Vitro |
By using NMR spectroscopy, laudecylphosphocholine micelles can be utilized to characterize the pore formation of the influenza M2 transmembrane (M2TM) domain [2].
Dodecylphosphocholine is extensively used in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies of membrane proteins. It forms micelles that mimic the lipid bilayer environment, allowing membrane proteins to be studied in a native-like state. The compound is also used as a model surfactant for studying micelle formation, protein–lipid interactions, and the transition between bilayer and micellar phases. |
| ln Vivo |
Dodecylphosphocholine is not used as a therapeutic agent in vivo. Its primary applications are in biochemical and biophysical research. The compound is used to solubilize membrane proteins for structural and functional studies. It is also used to study the effects of detergents on biological membranes and to develop new methods for membrane protein characterization.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
