Description

L-α-Lysophosphatidylserine (Brain, Porcine) (Sodium Salt) is a high-purity, single-chain phospholipid derivative of phosphatidylserine, specifically sourced from porcine brain tissue. This compound is a critical biochemical reagent and precursor for studying membrane dynamics, signal transduction, and neuronal function. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and advanced life science sectors who require biologically relevant lipids for drug delivery systems, diagnostic assays, and cognitive health research. The product is supplied as the sodium salt to enhance stability and solubility.

Application

• Biochemical Research: A key reagent for studying apoptosis (programmed cell death), membrane asymmetry, and the role of phosphatidylserine in cellular signaling pathways.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Used as a functional excipient or active component in liposomal formulations for targeted drug delivery, particularly in neurological and oncological applications.
• Nutraceutical Ingredient: Serves as a premium source material for the synthesis of phosphatidylserine-based cognitive support supplements.
• Diagnostic Assays: Employed in the development of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) and other tests to detect antibodies or biomarkers related to autoimmune and coagulation disorders.
• Cell Culture & Neuroscience: Used to modulate membrane properties and study receptor interactions in neuronal cell models.
• Cosmeceuticals: Incorporated into advanced skincare formulations for its purported role in supporting skin cell membrane integrity and repair.

Quality Control

Our L-α-Lysophosphatidylserine (Brain, Porcine) (Sodium Salt) is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results are available upon request. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to guarantee consistency and traceability.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) to prevent oxidation and hydrolysis. The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and must be handled in a dry environment. Allow the sealed vial to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to minimize moisture condensation.
