Potassium D-gluconate widely used as sequestering compounds for metal ions in alkaline systems. It is used in a newly developed process entitled ARS for the prevention of shrinkage in dyed wool fabric. Potassium gluconate has been shown to elevate lactate production, and ATP content, as well as induce the Hemoglobin (methemoglobin) reduction rate in rat erythrocytes. It is used in cell culture and in large scale applications such as the cleaning of metal surfaces.
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.
