Ribonuclease inhibitorDiethyl dicarbonate acts as an inhibitor of ryanodine binding to ryanodine/calcium(II) receptor channel. It is useful for specific inactivation of nucleases during isolation of undegraded polynucleotides. Further, it inhibits platelet-activating factor acetyl hydrolase. In addition to this, it is involved in the modification reagent for His and Tyr residues in proteins.
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. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
