L-Ornithine, acetate (1:1)

Description:
L-Ornithine, acetate (1:1) is a salt formed from the amino acid L-ornithine and acetic acid. It is characterized by its role in the urea cycle, where it participates in the detoxification of ammonia in the body. This compound is typically found in a crystalline form and is soluble in water, making it suitable for various biochemical applications. L-ornithine itself is a non-proteinogenic amino acid, which means it is not incorporated into proteins but plays crucial roles in metabolic processes, including the synthesis of polyamines and the regulation of nitrogen metabolism. The acetate component contributes to its solubility and stability in solution. L-Ornithine, acetate is often used in nutritional supplements, particularly for its potential benefits in promoting muscle recovery and enhancing athletic performance. Additionally, it may have applications in clinical settings, particularly in conditions related to ammonia toxicity. As with any chemical substance, proper handling and storage are essential to maintain its integrity and efficacy.
