Description

1,3-Dihydroxy-2-Propanone 1-Phosphate Dilithium Salt is a high-purity, organophosphate salt derivative of dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP), a critical intermediate in metabolic pathways. This compound is valued for its role as a stable, water-soluble reagent in enzymatic and biochemical research, particularly in studies of glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, and lipid biosynthesis. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the life sciences, pharmaceutical development, and diagnostic reagent sectors requiring precise biochemical substrates.

Application

• Biochemical Research Reagent: A key substrate for enzymatic assays involving aldolases, triosephosphate isomerase, and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis and development of novel therapeutic agents targeting metabolic disorders.
• Diagnostic Kit Manufacturing: Incorporated into in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) kits for clinical chemistry analyzers to measure specific enzyme activities.
• Metabolic Pathway Studies: Essential for in-vitro reconstruction and analysis of glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, and the Calvin cycle in plant biochemistry.
• Enzyme Characterization: Serves as a standard or substrate for kinetic studies, inhibitor screening, and enzyme purification processes.
• Cell Culture & Media Supplement: Potential application as a defined component in specialized cell culture media for metabolic engineering.
