| These bind and solubilize ferric iron by competing with transferrin. | 
| For example, certain drugs, such as the alkaloids, are notoriously difficult to solubilize. | 
| This technique utilizes a negatively charged detergent to denature and solubilize proteins. | 
| The amphiphatic character of the detergent molecules helps solubilize the membrane protein. | 
| They solubilize dietary lipids facilitating their hydrolysis by lipases and their absorption into the bloodstream. | 
| Other laboratories had reported the use of alcohols or detergents to solubilize lipid extracts for cholesterol analysis with enzymatic reagents. |
