    Product Description

    8-iso-15-keto Prostaglandin E2 (8-iso-15-keto PGE2) is an isoprostane, one member of a large family of biomarkers produced by the free radical peroxidative degradation of membrane lipids.1 8-iso-15-keto PGE2 is the theoretical first metabolite of 8-iso PGE2 via the 15-hydroxy PGDH pathway. While a number of potent biological activities have been attributed to 8-iso PGE2, there are no published reports at this time regarding its metabolism.2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
