Product Information
Name:Glutaric acid
Synonyms:
- Pentanedioic acid
Brand:Biosynth
Description:Glutaric acid is a dinucleotide phosphate that exists in two forms: the alpha form, which has a high phase transition temperature and is insoluble in water; and the beta form, which has a low phase transition temperature and is soluble in water. Glutaric acid can be used as an analytical reagent to identify the type of nucleotides present in samples. It can also be used as an experimental solvent for other compounds that are not soluble in water. The toxicity of glutaric acid has been studied extensively and found to be low. This compound does not appear to have any adverse effects on human health or animals at doses up to 1g/kg body weight. Glutaric acid has been shown to have anti-infectious properties by inhibiting the growth of bacteria, fungi, and viruses. The effectiveness of glutaric acid against infectious diseases appears to depend on its ability to block protein synthesis by inhibiting enzymes such as glutathione reductase
