Description
The list of phosphatidylglycerol products offered by Avanti is designed to provide compounds having a variety of physical properties. Products available include short chain (C6-C8; water soluble), saturated, multi-unsaturated and mixed acid PG's. All of the products are purified by HPLC, and special precautions are taken to protect them from oxidization and hydrolysis. Several of these products are manufactured under cGMP guidelines and are available for your pharmaceutical use. If you have a requirement for a glycerol derivative not found in our list, please call.

Note
Due to the high transition temperatures of saturated products, it may be necessary to heat the solvent to solubilize the compound. Also, a small amount of methanol (0.1%) and water (0.05%) may be needed to hydrate the compound.
