SDS is used in cleaning procedures,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/sis/search/a?dbs+hsdb:@term+@DOCNO+1315|title=Sodium Lauryl Sulfate – National Library of Medicine HSDB Database|website=toxnet.nlm.nih.gov|access-date=2017-02-16}}</ref> and is commonly used as a component for [[Lysis|lysing]] cells during [[RNA extraction]] or [[DNA extraction]], inhibiting the activity of nucleases, enzymes that can degrade DNA, protecting the integrity of the isolated genetic material, and for denaturing proteins in preparation for [[electrophoresis]] in the [[SDS-PAGE]] technique.<ref>The acronym expands to "sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis."</ref> |
|||
[[File:Protein-SDS interaction.png|thumb|Denaturation of a protein using SDS]] |
|||
In the case of SDS-PAGE, the compound works by disrupting non-covalent bonds in the proteins, and so denaturing them, i.e. causing the protein molecules to lose their native conformations and shapes. By binding to proteins at a ratio of one SDS molecule per 2 amino acid residues, the negatively charged detergent provides all proteins with a similar net negative charge and therefore a similar charge-to-mass ratio.<ref name=":2">{{cite book|last1=Janson|first1=Lee W.|first2=Marc|last2=Tischler|url=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/794620168|title=The big picture: medical biochemistry|date=2012|publisher=McGraw-Hill|others=Tischler, Marc E.|isbn=978-0-07-163792-3|location=New York|oclc=794620168}}</ref> In this way, the difference in mobility of the polypeptide chains in the gel can be attributed solely to their length as opposed to both their native charge and shape.<ref name=":2" /><ref>{{cite book|title=Fundamental Laboratory Approaches for Biochemistry and Biotechnology|last1=Ninfa|first1=Alexander|last2=Ballou|first2=David|last3=Benore|first3=Marilee|publisher=Wiley, John and Sons, Incorporated|year=2009|isbn=978-0470087664|location=United States|page=165}}</ref> This separation based on the size of the polypeptide chain simplifies the analysis of protein molecules.<ref name=":0">{{cite book|title=Fundamental Laboratory Approaches for Biochemistry and Biotechnology|last1=Ninfa|first1=Alexander|last2=Ballou|first2=David|publisher=John Wiley & Sons|year=1998|isbn=978-1-891-78600-6|location=Hoboken, New Jersey|page=129}}</ref> |

====Pharmaceutical applications==== |
|||
Sodium lauryl sulfate is a widely used in the pharmaceutical field as an ionic solubilizer and emulsifier that is suitable for applications in liquid dispersions, solutions, emulsions and micro emulsions, tablets, foams and semi-solids such as creams, lotions and gels.<ref>{{cite web|title=Pharmaceuticals|url=https://pharmaceutical.basf.com/global/en.html|access-date=2021-04-27|website=pharmaceutical.basf.com|language=en}}</ref> Additionally, SLS aids in tablet wettability, as well as lubrication during manufacturing. Brand names of pharma-grade SLS include Kolliphor SLS and Kolliphor SLS Fine.<ref>{{cite web|title=Kolliphor® SLS|url=https://pharmaceutical.basf.com/global/en/drug-formulation/products/kolliphor-sls.html|access-date=2021-04-27|website=pharmaceutical.basf.com|language=en}}</ref> |
|||
====Miscellaneous applications==== |
|||
SLS is used in an improved technique for preparing brain tissues for study by optical microscopy. The technique, which has been branded as CLARITY, was the work of Karl Deisseroth and coworkers at [[Stanford University]], and involves infusion of the organ with an [[acrylamide]] solution to bind the macromolecules of the organ ([[protein]]s, [[nucleic acid]]s, etc.), followed by thermal polymerization to form a "brain–hydrogel" (a mesh interspersed throughout the tissue to fix the macromolecules and other structures in space), and then by lipid removal using SDS to eliminate [[light scattering]] with minimal protein loss, rendering the tissue quasi-transparent.<ref name=ShenNatureNews2013>{{cite journal | last=Shen | first = Helen | year = 2013 | title=See-through brains clarify connections | journal = Nature | volume = 496 | issue = 7444; April 10 | page = 151 | doi = 10.1038/496151a | pmid = 23579658 | bibcode = 2013Natur.496..151S | doi-access = free }}{{better source|date=March 2016}}</ref><ref name=ChungDeisserothNature2013>{{cite journal |author = Chung, K. |author2=Wallace, J. |author3=Kim, S.-Y. |author4=Kalyanasundaram, S. |author5=Andalman, A.S. |author6=Davidson, T.J. |author7=Mirzabekov, J.J. |author8=Zalocusky, K.A. |author9= Mattis, J. |author10=Denisin, A.K. |author11=Pak, Sally |author12=Bernstein, H. |author13=Ramakrishnan, C. |author14=Grosenick, L. |author15=Gradinaru, V. |author16=Deisseroth, K. |display-authors=3 | year = 2013 | title= Structural and molecular interrogation of intact biological systems | journal = Nature | volume = 497 | issue = 7449; May 16 | pages = 332–37 | doi = 10.1038/nature12107 | quote = Obtaining high-resolution information from a complex system, while maintaining the global perspective needed to understand system function, represents a key challenge in biology.

==== Dry mouth ==== |
|||
Primary sources from the group of Irma Rantanen at [[University of Turku]], Finland claim that SLS-containing pastes cause more dry mouth ([[xerostomia]]) than their proposed alternative. However, a 2011 [[Cochrane (organisation)|Cochrane]] review of these studies, and of the more general area, concludes that there "is no strong evidence... that any topical therapy is effective for relieving the symptom of dry mouth."<ref>See {{cite journal |author1=Furness S. |author2=Worthington, H.V. |author3=Bryan, G. |author4=Birchenough, S. |author5=McMillan R. |year=2011 |title=Interventions for the management of dry mouth: topical therapies |journal=Cochrane Database Syst Rev |volume=7 |issue=12; December |page=CD008934 |doi=10.1002/14651858.CD008934.pub2 |pmid=22161442 |quote=[Quoting abstract:] There is no strong evidence from this review that any topical therapy is effective for relieving the symptom of dry mouth.}} See Rantanen, et al.

==== Mouth ulceration ==== |
|||
A safety concern has been raised on the basis of several studies regarding the effect of toothpaste SDS on [[aphthous ulcers]] (more specifically, [[mouth ulcer]]s or "canker sores"), commonly referred to as canker or white sores.<ref name = LippertvanLoveren13/> According to the NHS, SLS is a cause for concern for mouth ulcers.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/mouth-ulcers/|title=Mouth ulcers|date=18 October 2017 |quote=do not use toothpaste containing sodium lauryl sulphate|publisher=NHS}}</ref><ref>Some of the published studies, from latest to earliest, are as follows. (i) A 2012 double-blind crossover study of 90-patients failed to find a significant difference in number of ulcers between groups using SLS-containing toothpaste, versus a group using an SLS-free toothpaste, but did suggest significant reduction in ulcer duration and improvement in patient pain scores, see {{cite journal | last1 = Shim | first1 = Y.

(ii) A 1999 double-blind crossover study of 47 patients failed to find any statistically significant difference in the number, episodes, and duration of such ulcers between these two groups, and of pain scores between them, see {{cite journal|journal=Oral Dis. |date=January 1999 |volume=5 |issue=1 |pages=39–43|title=The effect of a sodium lauryl sulfate-free dentifrice on patients with recurrent oral ulceration|vauthors=Healy CM, Paterson M, Joyston-Bechal S, Williams DM, Thornhill MH |pmid=10218040 |doi=10.1111/j.1601-0825.1999.tb00062.x}} (iii) A 1997 study suggested a significantly higher number of ulcers after SLS toothpaste use, versus its control group, see {{cite journal |vauthors=Chahine L, Sempson N, Wagoner C |title=The effect of sodium lauryl sulfate on recurrent aphthous ulcers: a clinical study |journal=Compend. Contin. Educ. Dent. |volume=18 |issue=12 |pages=1238–40 |date=December 1997 |pmid=9656847 }}, a study also cited in the Lippert (2013) book chapter. (iv) A 1996 follow-up 30-patient [[Blind experiment#Double-blind trials|double-blind]] crossover study and a 1994 preliminary 10-patient [[crossover study]] by the same authors suggested significantly higher numbers of aphthous ulcers after using SLS-containing toothpaste, compared with an SLS-free toothpaste, see {{cite journal |vauthors=Herlofson BB, Barkvoll P |title=The effect of two toothpaste detergents on the frequency of recurrent aphthous ulcers |journal=Acta Odontol.
