Application

Prostaglandin B2 has been used as an internal standard in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Prostaglandin B2 (PGB2) is an eicosanoid and a lipid mediator. It is synthesized by the dehydration of PGE2. It is a primary prostaglandin associated with the osteoblasts and may induce pulmonary hypertension. PGB2 is also reported to inhibit glucagon stimulated glycogenolysis and forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in plasma membranes.

Physical form

Prostaglandin B2 is supplied as a solution in methyl acetate

Preparation Note

PGB2 is provided as a solution in methyl acetate. To change the solvent, evaporate the methyl acetate under a gentle stream of nitrogen and immediately add the solvent of choice. PGB2, purged with an inert gas, is soluble in ethanol at ~100 mg/mL, DMSO at ~50 mg/mL and in dimethyl formamide at ~ 75 mg/mL.

Disclaimer

Supply conditions do not apply to the regions and states of Brazil: North, Northeast, Mato Grosso do Sul, Mato Grosso, and Rio Grande do Sul.
