Application

Methylglyoxal solution is used in cytotoxic studies.[1][2][3]

General description

Methylglyoxal is a toxic endogenous by-product of glycolysis.[1] It is a reactive dicarbonyl compound that promotes non-enzymatic glycation of proteins to yield irreversible advanced glycated end products, leading to the cross-linking or degradation of proteins.[3]
