Description

Monensin sodium salt is used in potentiometric and spectroscopic studies of alkali metal ion complexes. Monensin (Na) is a polyether small molecule ionophore, capable of forming stable complexes to monovalent cations with specific affinity for Na+. Monensin presents a highly lipophilic scaffold around the bound ion, allowing movement of the complex through the lipid bilayer and consequent transport of the ion out of the cell. Excessive flux of ions out of the cell produces a cytotoxic effect and generates the antibiotic properties of Monensin.

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.
