Urea is used in biochemistry and molecular biology as a protein denaturant with low UV absorptivity. In addition to increasing solubility of hydrophobic molecules, unfolding proteins and altering their three-dimensional structures, Urea also renatures protein structures. BioSpectra manufactures repurified, GMP Urea in its FDA registered, US facility.


These are general specifications. BioSpectra will customize our products to meet your quality based requirements.
