IPTG

High-purity IPTG (>99%), dioxane-free inducer of lac operon for cloning and protein expression in E. coli.

IPTG (Isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside) is a molecular biology reagent used to induce expression of genes under the lac promoter system. It serves as a non-metabolizable analog of lactose, activating transcription in bacterial cultures.

This compound is highly pure and stable, ensuring consistent induction of target genes in recombinant protein expression experiments.
