Application and Effect
Cell Growth and Metabolism: BGPS is commonly used as a growth supplement in cell culture media. It provides a readily available source of phosphate, an essential nutrient for cellular metabolism, energy production, and biosynthesis processes. This helps to support the growth and proliferation of cells. Enzymatic Assays: BGPS is often used as a substrate in enzymatic assays to measure the activity of certain enzymes, such as glycerol kinase. When these enzymes act upon BGPS, it is converted into a detectable product, allowing researchers to quantify enzyme activity. This is particularly useful for studying metabolic pathways and enzyme kinetics. Phosphate Buffer: BGPS can also be used as a component of phosphate buffer systems. These buffers are commonly employed in biological and biochemical research to maintain pH stability and provide optimal conditions for various biological reactions. Phosphorylation Reactions: Being a phosphate compound, BGPS can also be used in phosphorylation reactions. Phosphorylation is a fundamental process in cellular signaling and regulation, where phosphate groups are transferred to proteins or other molecules, modifying their activity or function. BGPS can serve as a phosphate donor in these reactions.Product Packing:
