PANclear APG 10% Solution
Non-ionic detergent alternative for lysis and viral inactivation in animal-free processes. · GMP catalogue product · CT-01101
PANclear APG 10% Solution is a defined non-ionic detergent for downstream processing. It is an animal-free alternative for cell/virus lysis and enveloped-virus inactivation, used where animal-free processing is required – across cell & gene therapy, vaccine and antibody workflows. It is a future-proof, animal-free choice for applications where octylphenol ethoxylates such as Triton™ X-100 have been used.
Made with genuine Triton™ CG-110. PANclear APG 10% Solution is formulated from authentic Triton™ CG-110 (alkyl polyglucoside) raw material.One GMP quality. PANclear APG 10% Solution is a GMP-grade catalogue product (CT-01101), manufactured by PAN-Celltech and released against a defined quality-control panel on every lot.
Why PANclear APG
The same non-ionic detergent action for cell/virus lysis and enveloped-virus inactivation – with the regulatory, sustainability and supply advantages of an animal-free, plant-derived alkyl polyglucoside.
- No SVHC, no authorisation burden – PANclear APG is not a substance of very high concern and is not listed for authorisation under REACH (Annex XIV). The compliance uncertainty tied to an authorisation-subject surfactant – use scrutiny, use declarations and liability exposure – does not apply.
- Supplied for production, including GMP – because it is not authorisation-subject, PANclear APG can be supplied for production and process manufacturing, not only for research and development.
- Readily biodegradable – simpler disposal – as a plant-derived alkyl polyglucoside it is readily biodegradable, which simplifies waste handling and effluent management.
- Future-proof & sustainable – animal-free, plant-derived and readily biodegradable: a choice that supports sustainability goals and de-risks supply against tightening EU chemicals regulation.
For applications currently using octylphenol ethoxylates. Octylphenol ethoxylates such as Triton™ X-100 are listed on the REACH Authorisation List (Annex XIV; sunset date 4 January 2021); their continued use in the EU requires an authorisation or a specific exemption (for example, research and development). PANclear APG provides a non-ionic detergent for the same lysis and enveloped-virus-inactivation applications – without that authorisation path – and can be supplied for production and GMP use.

Frequently asked questions
What is PANclear APG used for?
It is a non-ionic detergent for cell/virus lysis and enveloped-virus inactivation in animal-free processes.
Can PANclear APG be used where octylphenol ethoxylates such as Triton™ X-100 were used?
Yes. PANclear APG is a non-ionic detergent for the same cell/virus lysis and enveloped-virus-inactivation applications. As an animal-free, plant-derived alkyl polyglucoside it is readily biodegradable, is not a substance of very high concern, and is not subject to REACH authorisation (Annex XIV) – so it can be supplied for production and GMP use.
Is PANclear APG affected by REACH authorisation (Annex XIV)?
No. PANclear APG (alkyl polyglucoside) is neither a substance of very high concern nor listed for authorisation under REACH, which avoids the use-scrutiny, use-declaration and liability questions associated with octylphenol ethoxylates.
In which grade is PANclear APG available?
It is available as a GMP product (CT-01101).
