| Description: | Ferroheme is the ferrous form of heme in hemoglobin, reversibly binding oxygen as an oxygen carrier. Its free form induces oxidative stress and ferroptosis by releasing iron ions, which catalyze reactive oxygen species generation via Fenton reactions, leading to lipid peroxidation and cell death. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
