Description

L-Arginine is the nitrogen donor for synthesis of nitric oxide, a potent vasodilator that is deficient during times of sickle cell crisis.Target: OthersL-Arginine is an α-amino acid. It was first isolated in 1886. The L-form is one of the 20 most common natural amino acids. At the level of molecular genetics, in the structure of the messenger ribonucleic acid mRNA, CGU, CGC, CGA, CGG, AGA, and AGG, are the triplets of nucleotide bases or codons that code for arginine during protein synth


Solid


Arginine is a diaminomonocarboxylic acid. The nonessential amino acid, arginine, is a urea cycle amino acid and a precursor for the neurotransmitter nitric oxide, which plays a role in the regulation of the brain’s system of dilation and constriction of small blood vessels. It is strongly alkaline and its water solutions absorb carbon dioxide from the air (FCC, 1996). Functionality in foods includes, but is not limited to, nutrient and dietary supplement

L(+)-Arginine Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Gelatin is used as raw material, hydrochloric acid hydrolyzed and then condensed with benzaldehyde to obtain benzylidene arginine, and the finished product is obtained by hydrochloric acid hydrolysis, activated carbon treatment, and column chromatography.

Uses

Nitric oxide synthase substrate can be converted to citrulline and NO. Induces insulin secretion by a mechanism that depends on NO.Used as pharmaceutical raw materials and food additives. Nutritional supplements; flavoring agents. For biochemical research, various types of hepatic coma and viral hepatic alanine aminotransferase abnormalities


L-Arginine is used for heart and blood vessel conditions which includes congestive heart failure (CHF), chest pain, high blood pressure and coronary artery disease. It plays a vital role in the treatment of cardiovascular disease due to it being antiatherogenic, anti-ischemic, antiplatelet and antithrombotic. It acts as a growth stimulant and is involved in the treatment of erectile dysfunction in men. It is an important ingredient of tooth paste which provides effective relief for sensitive teeth.


Amino acid; nutrient.


L-Arginine has been used:as a Roswell park memorial institute medium (RPMI) media component in the isolation and culture of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs)as a RPMI media component for tissue culturein DMEM medium for the identification and quantification of phosphorylation sites by stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) and LCMS/MS
