Figure 7.13.1

Extinction profile of common reductants in the ultraviolet range. TCEP is an ideal reductant due to the low extinction at 280 nm where most proteins can be measured. DTT and ethanedithiol change extinction drastically with oxidation and are not recommended for AU experiments, this is not observed for TCEP.
