Description
β-Glycerophosphate disodium salt pentahydrate is a biochemistry-grade reagent supplied at min. 97 % purity. It is registered under CAS number 13408-09-8 with EG number 212-464-3 and empirical formula C₃H₇Na₂O₆P · 5 H₂O, corresponding to a molar mass of 306,12 g/mol. The salt is employed as a phosphatase inhibitor and phosphate source in cell-culture media, protein isolation buffers and osteogenic differentiation protocols. In biochemical workflows it helps preserve phosphorylation states during lysis and supports mineralisation studies in stem-cell and tissue-engineering research. Offered from manufacturer Carl ROTH for biochemistry, the pentahydrate form dissolves readily in aqueous systems used in life-science laboratories. Researchers incorporate β-glycerophosphate into inhibitor cocktails, alkaline phosphatase assays and culture formulations where a defined organic phosphate salt is required. The stated minimum purity supports consistent buffer and media preparation across experimental series in molecular and cellular biology.

Questions about β-Glycerophosphate disodium salt pentahydrate, 50 g, >=97 %, for biochemistry
What is this article?
β-Glycerophosphate disodium salt pentahydrate, 50 g, >=97 %, for biochemistry is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Protein biology (other), inside Protein biology & Western blot, in Microbiology lab supplies.
This shelf is the protein-biology article that is not a membrane and not an extraction kit: stains for gels, buffers, small tools of a protein bench. The method, a gel stain or a quantitation assay, still chooses the bottle.
Protein work separates a mixture, then asks which protein is which. Extraction and purification take the protein out of the cell. A marker shows the masses. A Western blot moves the separated proteins onto a membrane and probes them with an antibody. The membrane, nitrocellulose or PVDF, has to bind the protein and survive the washes. Antibodies and methods are in PubMed. Reference material is at ATCC.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Protein biology & Western blot. The sub-category is Protein biology (other). The catalogue is Microbiology lab supplies.
