Myo-Inositol

Myo-Inositol is a growth factor and structural element of secondary messengers in eukaryotic cells. In plant tissues, it acts as a principal storage form of phosphorus, making it an effective vitamin in plant tissue culture media.

Plant tissue culture grade Myo-Inositol is of >99% purity and thoroughly tested for bacterial contaminants and chemical impurities. When solutions containing Myo-Inositol are cooled, it may fall out of solution as small particulates. This can be fixed by gently heating the solution with slight agitation.
