| Application: | Antioxidant assays (1) EDTA is also employed in molecular biology techniques, such as DNA extraction, purification, and electrophoresis, where it helps to prevent metal-mediated degradation of nucleic acids. Additionally, EDTA is utilized in cell culture media as a sequestrant to bind and neutralize metal ions present in the medium, thereby promoting cell growth and viability. |
| Application: | Chelator of divalent cations. Inhibits enzymes, such as metalloproteases, that require divalent cations for activity. |
| Application: | Ethylenediaminetetraaceti • of radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer (RIPA buffer) for preparation of C2C12 mouse skeletal myoblasts whole cell lysate • of lysis buffer and IgG resin wash and equilibration buffer for the purification of human proteasome regulatory particles (RPs) • of M-buffer for the isolation of human cardiomyocyte progenitor cells (CMPCs) from fetal heart |
