Description

2-Deoxy-D-ribose is used as a precursor to deoxyribonucleic acid. It induces apoptosis by inhibiting the synthesis and increasing the efflux of glutathione. Further, it is used in the synthesis of optically active dipyrrolyl alkanols from pyrroles on the surface of montmorillonite KSF clay.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
