Biological Activity

Potassium D-gluconate (Potassium Gluconate) is an orally active carboxylic acid derivative and potassium salt with antiseptic and chelating properties. It acts as an electrolyte replenisher by supplying bioavailable potassium ions to regulate cellular membrane potential and preserve intracellular osmolality. Consequently, it supports neuromuscular function and stabilizes ionic homeostasis across vascular and epithelial tissues.

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
