- L-(-)-Sodium hydrogen malate(S)-(-)-Hydroxysuccinic acid sodiumL-Hydroxybutanoic acid sodium
Brand:Biosynth
Description:L-Malic acid is a dicarboxylic acid that is found in many fruits and vegetables. It is the substrate for the enzyme malate dehydrogenase, which catalyzes the oxidation of L-malate to oxaloacetate. L-Malic acid is used to study mitochondrial function, as it can be used as an alternative energy source. The L-malic acid monosodium salt (LAM) has been shown to be effective in preventing muscle damage caused by exercise. This may be due to its ability to decrease oxidative stress and increase ATP production through increased mitochondrial activity. LAM also has been shown to promote photoreceptor cell survival and improve retinal function in animals with damaged photoreceptors, although it does not have any effect on normal animal eyes.
