MEGA-9
MEGA-9 (N-Nonanoyl-N-methylglucamine) is a green, biodegradable glycosyl nonionic surfactant and micelle-forming agent. MEGA-9 acts as a membrane solubilizer, forms vesicles, solubilizes milk fat, eliminates non-specific reactions of test strips, and restores antigen-antibody reactions in cheddar cheese homogenates for the detection of staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB).
