Description

The solubility of DL-Lysine hydrochloride in water is low, with a solubility of 0.01 g/100 mL at 25 °C. The pH of the solution is 7.0 and the concentration is 10.00%. The pH of the solution was determined using a pH meter. The concentration was determined by weight measurements using a balance and a volumetric flask. DL-Lysine hydrochloride reacts with hydrochloric acid to form an amide linkage between lysine residues on adjacent polypeptides or proteins, which may be used as a cross-linking agent for cell culture experiments. This compound has been shown to inhibit the growth of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in cell culture experiments, although it has no effect on HSV-2 because it lacks an amino group at position 2 on its side chain.
