General description

Our high-purity magnesium chips, also called magnesium turnings or granules, are a form of elemental magnesium metal produced by mechanically processing ultra-high-purity magnesium ingots. The process yields material that is 0.5-3.5 mm in size. High-purity magnesium chips are commonly used as a reductant in Grignard reactions for specialty chemical, pharmaceutical, and agricultural applications. Magnesium chips are also used in the preparation of magnesium alloys, which offer a unique combination of light weight, strength, and corrosion resistance.

Mg(2+) has been shown to modulate the function of riboswitches by facilitating the ligand-riboswitch interactions. The btuB riboswitch from Escherichia coli undergoes a conformational change upon binding to its ligand, coenzyme B12 (adenosyl-cobalamine, AdoCbl), and down-regulates the expression of the
