L-Pipecolic acid (Standard)

L-Pipecolic acid (Standard) is an analytical standard of L-Pipecolic acid. This product is used for research and analytical applications. L-Pipecolic acid (H-HoPro-OH) is an oral active metabolite of Lysine and can accumulate in the bodily fluids of infants with autosomal inherited diseases, such as Zellweger syndrome and neonatal adrenal insufficiency. L-Pipecolic acid can promote muscle cell health and growth by enhancing protein synthesis, and plays a role in promoting gut health. L-Pipecolic acid holds promise for research in the fields of metabolic disorders, muscle growth disorders, and intestinal diseases[1][2][3].
