glycine(standard)

Glycine (Standard) is a reference standard for research and analysis in studies involving glycine. Glycine is an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and a co-agonist of glutamate, enhancing NMDA receptor excitability. It is found in gelatin and silk fibroin and is used as a nutrient in medical treatments.

DL-Alanine (Standard) is the standard substance of DL-Alanine, and it is applicable for quantitative analysis, quality control, and related research in biochemical experiments. DL-Alanine (DL-2-Aminopropionic acid) is an amino acid that is a racemic compound of L- and D-alanine.DL-Alanine is often used as a reducing and capping agent in conjunction with aqueous silver nitrate for nanoparticle generation.DL-Alanine is a sweetening agent, and can be grouped with glycine and sodium saccharin.DL-Alanine plays an important role in glucose-alanine cycling between tissues and liver.DL-Alanine can be used to study the chelation of transition metals such as Cu, Zn, and Cd.

Myristic acid (Standard) is the standard substance of Myristic acid, and it is applicable for quantitative analysis, quality control, and related research in biochemical experiments. Myristic acid (Crodacid) , a 14 carbon saturated fatty acid, is a rare molecule in cells and is a substrate of some fatty acid desaturases. This compound has the ability to acylate proteins by covalently binding to the N-terminal glycine residues, in a process called N-terminal myristoylation. Myristoylation of substrate proteins by this fatty acid has the potential to activate and mediate many physiological pathways. Furthermore, saturated fatty acids have been reported to be essential for biological activities of lipopolysaccharides and have demonstrated the ability to induce expression of COX-2 and NFκB (nuclear factor κB) activation.
