Sodium Pyruvate, the most common pyruvate, it is an intermediate product of glycolysis. It can directly enter and exit cells. It is a necessary nutrient for cell metabolism. In the absence of glucose, it can be used as a source of energy for cells. It is one of the commonly used additives in cell culture. Although cells can produce sodium pyruvate, some cells require additional addition of sodium pyruvate during in vitro culture. A certain amount of sodium pyruvate can also be added during clonal culture or low level of serum concentration, and sodium pyruvate also can reduce phototoxic effects caused by fluorescent substances.

Asked: Will freezing Sodium Pyruvate increase its shelf life? Thank you.

adminSubmitted [ Jul 19 2023 ]

Answered: 2-8 degrees of storage is valid for 1 year. Theoretically, it can be frozen, but it is uncertain whether it can extend the shelf life. You can order according to the experimental time, and our products will be shipped three days after ordering.
