Description

Lysine(Propionyl)- Oh is a chemically modified derivative of the essential amino acid L-lysine, where a propionyl group is attached. This modification is crucial for enhancing the molecule's stability, bioavailability, and functional properties for advanced biochemical applications. It is primarily required by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and high-purity research sectors seeking a reliable building block for peptide synthesis and metabolic studies.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a key chiral building block in the synthesis of novel peptide-based therapeutics and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Biochemical Research: Used as a standard or reagent in metabolic pathway studies, enzyme research, and proteomics due to its specific modification.
• Nutraceutical Development: Incorporated into advanced dietary supplements and functional food formulations designed for targeted amino acid delivery.
• Cosmetic Peptides: Acts as a precursor in the production of bioactive peptides for anti-aging and skin-repair cosmetic applications.
• Veterinary Pharmaceuticals: Utilized in the formulation of specialized amino acid supplements and medicinal feeds for animal health.

Quality Control

Our Lysine(Propionyl)- Oh is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation (IR, NMR), to ensure it meets the high standards required for pharmaceutical and research applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
