Biological Activity
Tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TTAB; TTABr; MiTMAB) is increasingly used in capillary electrophoresis as a surface active aid in the separation of acid derived anionic species. It has been observed that Tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide requires a minimum concentration of approximately 0.4mM for best results. This value has been chosen because it is close to its critical micelle concentration (CMC), and it has been projected that this concentration is required for "hemimicelles" to be formed on the inner wall of the capillary[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

H2O : 111.11 mg/mL (330.30 mM; ultrasonic and warming and heat to 60°C)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 1 year; -20°C, 6 months. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 1 year. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 6 months.
* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.
