Functions

Hypoxanthine is a natural purine analog and a breakdown product of adenosine. Together with aminopterin and thymidine, it is a component of HAT medium, which is used to select clones during recombinant protein and antibody production, particularly important in bioprocessing. It is a biomarker of ischemia, and it is used in malaria research as an essential nutrient for P. Falciparum. It also can enable stem cell expansion.

 

Application Procedures

First dissolved in DMSO (30 mg/ml), then diluted to aqueous buffer.
