    Product Description

    Adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP) is a central component of energy storage, metabolism, and signal transduction in vivo. It serves as a precursor for ATP (Item No. 14498) and, in this capacity, is utilized in a wide number of cellular processes, including respiration, biosynthetic reactions, motility, and cell division.1,2 ADP is also an agonist of purinergic receptors that mediate platelet aggregation.3

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
