Applications

β-Glycerophosphate is a classical serine-threonine phosphatase inhibitor. It is often used in combination with other phosphatase/protease inhibitors for broad spectrum inhibition.[1][2]

β-Glycerophosphate is also used to drive osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stem cells in vitro.[3]

β-Glycerophosphate is used to buffer M17 media for Lactococcus culture in recombinant protein expression.[4]

gollark: I would imagine servers would be more likely to use recent things with N1/N2 cores and not this, really.
