Aminoacids and derivatives

<p>Applications Labelled 2-Methylbutyrylglycine (M294340). 2-Methylbutyrylglycine is one of the acylglycines, an important class of metabolites that have been used in the diagnosis of several inborn errors of metabolism (IEM).<br>References Costa, C., et al.: J.

<p>Stability Hygroscopic<br>Applications 4-Ethylcatechol is one of the main phenolic off-flavour markers in French ciders.<br>References Alonso-Salces, R., et al.: Anal. Bioanal. Chem., 379, 464 (2004), Xu, Y., et al.: J. Agr. Food Chemi., 55, 3051 (2007),<br></p>

<p>Stability Very Very Hygroscopic<br>Applications A metabolic intermediate of L-Carnitine.<br>References Huffman, K. et al.: Diab. Care, 32, 1678 (2009);<br></p>

<p>Stability Hygroscopic<br>Applications L-Glutamic Acid, Magnesium Salt Hydrobromide is an metabolite of L-Glutamic acid, a non-essential amino acid. Its salt form (glutamate) is an important neurotransmitter that plays a key role in long-term potentiation and is important for learning and memory. It is also a key molecule in cellular metabolism. L-Glutamic Acid, Magnesium Salt Hydrobromide has also been investigated for sedative properties as a tranquilizer.<br>References McEntee, W., et al.: Psychopharmacology, 111, 391 (1993), Manev, H., et al.: Mol.

<p>Applications L-Glutamine-2,3,3,4,4-d5 is the isotope labelled analog of L-Glutamine (G597000); an essential amino acid that is a crucial component of culture media that serves as a major energy source for cells in culture. L-Glutamine is very stable as a dry powder and as a frozen solution. In liquid media or stock solutions, however, L-glutamine degrades relatively rapidly. Optimal cell performance usually requires supplementation of the media with L-glutamine prior to use.<br>References Rivett, A., et al.: J. Biol.
