L-Ascorbic acid magnesium
Based on 1 Customer Validation
L-Ascorbic acid (L-Ascorbate) magnesium, an electron donor, is an endogenous antioxidant. L-Ascorbic acid selectively inhibits Cav3.2 channels with an IC50 of 6.5 μM. L-Ascorbic acid is also a collagen deposition promoter and elastin production inhibitor. L-Ascorbic acid exhibits anticancer effects by generating reactive oxygen species (ROS) and selectively damaging cancer cells.

In Vitro:
H2O : 2.5 mg/mL (13.35 mM; ultrasonic and warming and heat to 60°C)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month (sealed storage, away from moisture). When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.
* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.
