L-(+)-Ergothioneine-d3

Description:

L-(+)-Ergothioneine-d3 is a stable isotopic form of ergothioneine, a naturally occurring thiol compound that functions as an antioxidant in biological systems. It is characterized by its unique structure, which includes a thiazole ring and a carboxylic acid group, contributing to its solubility in water and ability to scavenge free radicals. The "d3" designation indicates that this compound is labeled with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen, which can be useful in various analytical techniques, including mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy. Ergothioneine is synthesized by certain fungi and bacteria and is found in various foods, particularly mushrooms, and is believed to play a role in cellular protection against oxidative stress. Its potential health benefits are being studied, including its role in neuroprotection and anti-inflammatory effects. The CAS number 1356933-89-5 specifically identifies this isotopically labeled variant, which is valuable in research settings for tracing metabolic pathways and understanding its biological functions.
