Valproic Acid and Impurities

<p>Valproic Acid (2-Propylpentanoic Acid) is a branched chain fatty acid which potentially enhances central GABAergic neurotransmission and inhibits Na+ channels.</p>

<p>2-hexyl-4-Pentynoic Acid, a valproic acid (VPA) derivatives, is a potent and robust HDACs inhibitor with IC50 value of 13 μM.</p>

<p>Applications 2-Methyl-Pentanoic acid is a useful building block for organic synthesis.<br> Not a dangerous good if item is equal to or less than 1g/ml and there is less than 100g/ml in the package<br></p>
