General description
Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) is derived from Trichloroethylene (TCE) metabolism. It is used as an acid decalcifying agent. TCA is used as a fixative for nuclear staining and protein precipitation.
Application
Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) has been used:
- to determine its effect on avian embryos during an exposure window encompassing cardiac specification
- as a cell fixative
- to terminate the O-acetylserine (thiol)lyase (OASTL) enzymatic assay
- for the precipitation of acidic ribosomal proteins (RPs)
Traditionally used to precipitate protein. Has been used to determine protein concentration by quantitative precipitation. Used as decalcifier and fixative in microscopy.
