Description

N-Acetyl-D-glutamic acid is an amino acid that is the building block for proteins in the body. It is a product of the hydrolysis of glutamic acid and is used to treat metabolic disorders such as lysinuric protein intolerance, which blocks the body's ability to break down proteins. N-Acetyl-D-glutamic acid can be found in sources such as peptone, glutamate, and d-carnitine. It has optimum temperature range of 25°C to 45°C. This amino acid can be used as an optical pH indicator due to its red color under acidic conditions and blue color under basic conditions.
