If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

General description
In cell biology, β-Glycerophosphate disodium salt plays a pivotal role as a phosphate group donor in matrix mineralization studies and accelerates calcification in vascular smooth muscle cells. It also promotes bone matrix mineralization when delivered to osteoblasts, providing a crucial source of phosphate ions. In the realm of biochemical research, BGP functions as a classical serine-threonine phosphatase inhibitor in kinase reaction buffers, offering broad-spectrum inhibition. Its role as an organic phosphate donor is particularly valuable in culture media for mesenchymal stem cell differentiation to osteoblast-type cells. Moreover, BGP is utilized to buffer M17 media for Lactococcus culture in recombinant protein expression. The comprehensive utility of BGP spans multiple areas of research, making it an essential component in studies encompassing cell biology, biochemical research, and metabolomics.

How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?
1 answer-
Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
