Chemical Properties
white crystalline powder
Uses
Inosine-5′-monophosphate (5′-IMP) may be used as a substrate to study the activity, specificity and kinetics of inosine 5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) EC 1.1.1.205, the rate limiting enzyme for the formation of GMP and the guanine nucleotide pool.
Uses
These Secondary Standards are qualified as Certified Reference Materials. These are suitable for use in several analytical applications including but not limited to pharma release testing, pharma method development for qualitative and quantitative analyses, food and beverage quality control testing, and other calibration requirements.
General Description
Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control, provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards. Disodium inosinate is the disodium salt of inosinic acid which belongs to the group of purine-5′-nucleotides. It is generally used as a taste and flavor enhancer in foods to provide umami taste.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Inosine monophosphate, or inosinic acid, is the ribonucleotide of hypoxanthine and the first nucleotide formed during purine synthesis.
