N-Acetyl-L-arginine (Standard)

N-Acetyl-L-arginine (Ac-Arg-OH) is one of the guanidino compounds found elevated in the serum of a hemodialyzed renal insufficient (uremic) pediatric population. N-Acetyl-L-arginine shows synergistic activity with glycine buffer. N-Acetyl-L-arginine suppresses the aggregation of intravenous immunoglobulins with a minimum decrease in transition temperature. N-Acetyl-L-arginine dramatically reduces IL-1 expression in the presence of silicone oil. N-Acetyl-L-arginine also demonstrates colloidal stability[1][2][3].
