N-Methyl-β-alanine

CAS: 2679-14-3

N-Methyl-β-alanine is a synthetic amino acid that can be used as an additive to animal feed. It has been shown to synergistically increase the potency of dermorphin, a peptide that is derived from the skin of frogs. N-Methyl-β-alanine has also been found to have a useful application in industrial chemistry because it can be used to produce fluorophores, which are substances that emit visible light and are often used in paints and plastics. This substance is also a powerful antinociceptive agent, meaning it reduces pain. It is also active against amines, which are organic compounds containing nitrogen.
