L-Ornithine-3,3,4,4,5,5-d6,hydrochloride (1:1)

Description:

L-Ornithine-3,3,4,4,5,5-d6 hydrochloride (1:1) is a deuterated form of the amino acid ornithine, which is a non-proteinogenic amino acid involved in the urea cycle and plays a role in nitrogen metabolism. The "d6" designation indicates that six hydrogen atoms in the molecule have been replaced with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen, which is often used in research to trace metabolic pathways or in NMR spectroscopy for structural analysis. As a hydrochloride salt, it is typically more soluble in water, enhancing its utility in biological and chemical applications. This compound is used in various biochemical studies, particularly in metabolic research and isotopic labeling experiments. Its characteristics include being a white crystalline solid, soluble in water, and stable under standard laboratory conditions. The presence of deuterium allows for enhanced detection and analysis in various experimental setups, making it valuable in both academic and pharmaceutical research contexts.
