Description: | Uric acid is a scavenger of oxygen radical, a very important antioxidant and a product of the metabolic decomposition of purine nucleotides. Helps maintain stable blood pressure and fights oxidative stress. Uric acid removes reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as singlet oxygen and peroxynitrite and inhibits lipid peroxidation. It can be used to induce animal models of uric acid nephropathy. |
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. |
