General description

DL-α-Glycerol phosphate is a racemic mixture of the D- and L-glycerophosphate enantiomers.

Application

DL-α-Glycerol phosphate magnesium salt hydrate has been used:
  • in oxidase and dehydrogenase assays
  • as a component of the osteoblast differentiation medium
  • for mineralization of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogels containing alkaline phosphatase designed for osteochondral regeneration


DL-a-Glycerol phosphate may be used to assess the lysogenic-strain features of agalactiae bacteriophages

The primary aim of the present investigation was to determine and compare the pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of inorganic phosphate in serum and urine after intravenous administration of sodium glycerophosphate and inorganic sodium phosphate. Additionally, study product safety profiles were evaluated.
