Product Overview
Glycylglycine, 99%+ is a high-purity dipeptide widely used in biochemical research due to its stability and non-hygroscopic nature. This laboratory-grade compound serves as an effective buffering agent, maintaining pH stability in enzymatic reactions and protein studies. Its crystalline powder form ensures easy dissolution in aqueous solutions without residue, making it ideal for sensitive applications like peptide synthesis. The reagent-grade purity minimizes interference in assays, ensuring reliable results. Glycylglycine’s neutral charge and small size allow it to penetrate biological membranes, enhancing its utility in cell culture experiments. Unlike glycine, its dipeptide structure provides better buffering capacity at physiological pH ranges. This product is rigorously tested for heavy metals and microbial contamination, meeting strict lab standards. Store in a cool, dry place to preserve its long shelf life and prevent degradation from moisture or light exposure.
FAQs
1. What is the solubility of Glycylglycine in water?
Glycylglycine is highly soluble in water, forming clear solutions at concentrations up to 100 mg/mL under standard lab conditions.
2. Can this be used for cell culture media preparation?
Yes, its high purity and non-toxic profile make it suitable for cell culture applications where buffering stability is critical.
3. How does Glycylglycine compare to Tris buffer?
Glycylglycine offers a narrower buffering range (pH 7.5–8.5) but is biologically inert, unlike Tris, which can interfere with some enzymes.
4. What is the recommended storage temperature?
Store at 15–25°C in a tightly sealed container to prevent moisture absorption and maintain stability.
5. Is this product tested for endotoxin contamination?
While not explicitly tested for endotoxins, the 99%+ purity grade ensures minimal microbial contaminants, suitable for most lab applications.
