The effect of octylglucoside on rafts is different from that of gangliosides. MDCK GH-DAF cells were incubated for 1 h with 5 and 10 mM octylglucoside and subjected to cross-linking with BS³. A slight decrease of cross-linking was observed only with 10 mM OG. For all concentrations tested, membranes remained intact (see RESULTS).
