Description

Application

Lithium chloride solution has been used:

• to obtain LiClPAM3 DCs form of dendritic cell

[69]

in LiCl buffer preparation for immunoprecipitation

[71]

in the preparation of wash buffer

[72]

in the preparation of radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) wash buffer

[50]

May be used to selectively precipitate RNA.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lithium chloride has the ability to block glycogen synthase kinase (GSK). It may also possess anti-inflammatory effects at low and non-toxic concentrations.[68]
