L-Glutamic acid (monosodium salt) (Standard)

L-Glutamic acid (monosodium salt) (Standard) is the analytical standard of L-Glutamic acid (monosodium salt). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. L-Glutamic acid monosodium salt is an excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter that acts as an agonist for all subtypes of glutamate receptors (metabolic rhodophylline, NMDA, and AMPA). L-Glutamic acid monosodium salt has an agonist effect on the release of DA from dopaminergic nerve endings. L-Glutamic acid monosodium salt can be used in the study of neurological diseases[1][2][3][4][5].
