The mass spectrometry‐compatible surfactant RapiGest promotes the enzymatic digestion of proteins by facilitating their unfolding while retaining enzymatic activity. RapiGest consists of a hydrophilic head and a hydrophobic tail, which can be separated by acid hydrolysis. This allows for removal of RapiGest prior to mass spectrometric analysis via precipitation and solid phase extraction. During in‐solution digestion experiments with RapiGest, we noticed a high variability in the formation of precipitates after acid hydrolysis, implying that RapiGest precipitation is sample‐dependent. We show that RapiGest hydrolyses efficiently under acidic conditions and that differences in precipitation are solely due to protein/peptide concentration. Furthermore, we demonstrate that RapiGest precipitation can be triggered by the addition of intact proteins, providing a strategy for its efficient removal from highly diluted samples.
