Solubilizing compositions are provided that include a 3-(alkyl dimethyl ammonia) propane sulfonate zwitterionic surfactant and a polyethylene glycol alkyl ether nonionic surfactant, provided that the zwitterionic surfactant and the nonionic surfactant are not simultaneously and respectively 3-(decyl dimethyl ammonia) propane sulfonate and polyoxyethylene (4) lauryl ether. Also provided are methods for solubilizing cells and/or tissue of a subject in vivo and methods for recovering proteins from skin cells of a subject in vivo using the solubilizing compositions.

Compositions for solubilizing cells and/or tissue

Solubilizing compositions are provided. The compositions comprise at least one zwitterionic surfactant and at least one nonionic surfactant. In one embodiment, the compositions may be useful for solubilizing and remodeling and/or removing tissue on or beneath a patient's skin, optionally in conjunction with the application of energy to a region of interest on the skin. In one embodiment, at least one analyte may be collected and analyzed from the solubilized tissue.

Composition for solubilizing tissue and cells comprising N-tetradecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate and polyoxyethylene (10) cetyl ether
