L-Ascorbic acid-13C-2

Description:
L-Ascorbic acid-13C-2, also known as labeled L-ascorbic acid, is a stable isotope-labeled form of vitamin C, where specific carbon atoms are replaced with the carbon-13 isotope. This compound retains the essential characteristics of L-ascorbic acid, which is a water-soluble vitamin known for its antioxidant properties and role in collagen synthesis, immune function, and iron absorption. The incorporation of carbon-13 allows for its use in metabolic studies and tracer experiments, providing insights into metabolic pathways and the bioavailability of vitamin C in biological systems. L-Ascorbic acid-13C-2 is typically utilized in research settings, particularly in studies involving nutrition, biochemistry, and pharmacokinetics. Its stability and non-radioactive nature make it a valuable tool for tracing and analyzing metabolic processes without the risks associated with radioactive isotopes. As with all forms of ascorbic acid, it is important to handle it under appropriate laboratory conditions to maintain its integrity and effectiveness in experimental applications.
