ICH-Q7 GMP Manufactured Product
UREA
Urea is used in biochemistry and molecular biology as a protein denaturant with low UV absorptivity. In addition to increasing solubility of hydrophobic molecules, unfolding proteins and altering their three-dimensional structures, Urea also renatures protein structures. BioSpectra manufactures repurified, GMP Urea in its FDA registered, US facility.
