Description

Glycylglycine is the dipeptide of glycine and the simplest peptide. Because of its low toxicity, it is useful as a buffer for biological systems with effective ranges between pH 2.5-3.8 and 7.5-8.9. However, it is only moderately stable for storage once dissolved. It is used in the synthesis of more complex peptides. This product is sterile-filtered.
