Sodium pyruvate, 1 X 25 g (P4562-25G)

Pyruvate, the end-product of the glycolysis pathway, is the anion of pyruvic acid. Sodium pyruvate has been used: •as a supplement in Ca²⁺ + N-Tris(hydroxymethil)methyl-2-aminoethanesulfonic acid (TES)–NaCl medium for sperm incubation •as a supplement in TCM-199 hepes modification solution for cumulus-oocytes complexes (COC′s) culture •as a supplement in Dulbecco′s modified Eagle medium (DMEM) to culture mouse primary hepatocytes (MPHs) and also to intraperitoneally inject fasted mice for glucose production assessment Sodium pyruvate is mainly used as a constituent in culture broth and media. It exhibits anti-oxidation and anti-inflammatory properties. Hence sodium pyruvate is considered a possible therapy for allergic rhinitis. Sodium pyruvate might also be a new approach treating lactic acidosis.
