Product Information
| Description: | Glycerol phenylbutyrate (GT4P, HPN-100M, Ravicti) is a nitrogen-binding agent and acts as a sigma-2 (σ2) receptor ligand with a pKi of 8.02. Glycerol phenylbutyrate is a prodrug in which phenylbutyrate (PBA) is released from the glycerol backbone by lipases in the gastrointestinal tract. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
