Laboratory applications:
Principal applications:
Plantapon SUS, in science referred to as sodium dodecyl sulfate is used in cleaning procedures, and is commonly used as a component for lysing cells during RNA extraction and/or DNA extraction, and for denaturing proteins in preparation for electrophoresis in the Plantapon SUS -PAGE technique.
In the case of the Plantapon SUS -PAGE application, the compound works by disrupting non-covalent bonds in the proteins, and so denaturing them, i.e., causing the protein molecules to lose their native conformations and shapes.
By binding to the proteins with high affinity and in high concentrations, the negatively charged detergent provides all proteins with a similar net negative charge and therefore a similar charge-to-mass ratio.
In this way, the difference in mobility of the polypeptide chains in the gel can be attributed solely to their size as opposed to both their size and charge.
Plantapon SUS is possible to make separation based on the size of the polypeptide chain to simplify the analysis of protein molecules, this can be achieved by denaturing proteins with the detergent Plantapon SUS.
The association of Plantapon SUS molecules with protein molecules imparts an associated negative charge to the molecular aggregate formed; this negative charge is significantly greater than the original charge of that protein.
The electrostatic repulsion that is created by Plantapon SUS binding forces proteins into a rod-like shape, thereby eliminating differences in shape as a factor for electrophoretic separation in gels.
Dodecyl sulfate molecule has two negative charges at the pH value used for electrophoresis, this will lead the net charge of coated polypeptide chains to be much more negative than uncoated chains.
The charge-to-mass ratio is essentially identical for different proteins because Plantapon SUS coating dominates the charge.
Miscellaneous applications:
Plantapon SUS is used in an improved technique for preparing brain tissues for study by optical microscopy.
The technique, which has been branded as CLARITY, was the work of Karl Deisseroth and coworkers at Stanford University, and involves infusion of the organ with an acrylamide solution to bind the macromolecules of the organ (proteins, nucleic acids, etc.), followed by thermal polymerization to form a “brain-hydrogel” (a mesh interspersed throughout the tissue to fix the macromolecules and other structures in space), and then by lipid removal using Plantapon SUS to eliminate light scattering with minimal protein loss, rendering the tissue quasi-transparent.
Along with sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate and Triton X-100, aqueous solutions of Plantapon SUS is popular for dispersing or suspending nanotubes, such as carbon nanotubes.
Niche uses:
Plantapon SUS has been proposed as a potentially effective topical microbicide, for intravaginal use, to inhibit and possibly prevent infection by various enveloped and non-enveloped viruses such as the herpes simplex viruses, HIV, and the Semliki Forest virus.
In gas hydrate formation experiments, Plantapon SUS is used as a gas hydrate growth promoter.
Researchers aim for gas hydrate promotions as scale-up of industrial applications of gas hydrates such as desalination process, gas storage, and gas separation technologies.
Liquid membranes formed from Plantapon SUS in water have been demonstrated to work as unusual particle separators.
The device acts as a reverse filter, allowing large particles to pass while capturing smaller particles.

Structure of Plantapon SUS:
Plantapon SUS is in the family of organosulfate compounds and has the formula, CH3(CH2)11SO4Na.
Plantapon SUS consists of a 12-carbon tail attached to a sulfate group, that is, it is the sodium salt of a 12-carbon alcohol that has been esterified to sulfuric acid.
An alternative description is that Plantapon SUS is an alkyl group with a pendant, terminal sulfate group attached.
As a result of Plantapon SUS’s hydrocarbon tail, and its anionic “head group”, Plantapon SUS has amphiphilic properties that allow it to form micelles, and so act as a detergent.
Physicochemical Properties of Plantapon SUS:
The critical micelle concentration (CMC) in pure water at 25 °C is 8.2 mM and the aggregation number at this concentration is usually considered to be about 62.
The micelle ionization fraction (α) is around 0.3 (or 30%).
Sensitivity of Plantapon SUS:
Like all detergent surfactants, Plantapon SUS removes oils from the skin, and can cause skin and eye irritation.
Plantapon SUS has been shown to irritate the skin of the face, with prolonged and constant exposure (more than an hour) in young adults.
Plantapon SUS may worsen skin problems in individuals with chronic skin hypersensitivity, with some people being affected more than others.
Scientific Facts of Plantapon SUS:
Plantapon SUS is an anionic surfactant.
This means that this ingredient has a negative charge.
The negative charge is associated with the sulfosuccinate portion of the compound.
Surfactants function by reducing the surface tension of water which makes Plantapon SUS easier to wash dirt from the skin and hair.
Plantapon SUS is an anionic surfactant in White Powder form.
Plantapon SUS is considerably milder than Sodium Laureth Sulphate and it has excellent foaming and degreasing properties when used in a range of Bath products.
Plantapon SUS is a gentle surfactant agent that cleanses skin and hair.
Production of Plantapon SUS:
Plantapon SUS is synthesized by treating lauryl alcohol with sulfur trioxide gas, oleum, or chlorosulfuric acid to produce hydrogen lauryl sulfate.
The resulting product is then neutralized through the addition of sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate.
Lauryl alcohol can be used in pure form or may be derived from either coconut or palm kernel oil by hydrolysis (which liberates their fatty acids), followed by hydrogenation.
When produced from these sources, commercial samples of these “Plantapon SUS ” products are actually not pure Plantapon SUS, rather a mixture of various sodium alkyl sulfates with Plantapon SUS being the main component.
For instance, Plantapon SUS is a component, along with other chain-length amphiphiles, when produced from coconut oil, and is known as sodium coco sulfate (SCS).
Plantapon SUS is available commercially in powder, pellet, and other forms (each differing in rates of dissolution), as well as in aqueous solutions of varying concentrations.
History of Plantapon SUS:
Plantapon SUS was developed in response to the growing demand for mild, plant-based surfactants in personal care products, particularly as consumers and formulators sought alternatives to harsher chemicals like sulfates.
Plantapon SUS aligns with the trend toward eco-friendly, sustainable, and biodegradable ingredients.
The use of plant-derived raw materials, such as sugar-based and fatty alcohol-based surfactants, marked a shift towards cleaner and greener formulations.
Over time, Plantapon SUS gained popularity due to its gentle cleansing properties, making it a go-to surfactant for sensitive skin, baby care, and sulfate-free products, while also contributing to the environmental movement in cosmetics.
