L-Tartaric acid (Standard)

L-Tartaric acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of L-Tartaric acid. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. L-tartaric acid (L-(+) -tartaric acid) is an orally active weak organic acid that can be isolated from grapes. L-Tartaric acid has vasodilatory and antihypertensive effects. L-Tartaric acid can be used as flavorings and antioxidants in a range of foods and beverages. L-Tartaric acid can be used in laser frequency doubling and optical limiting applications[1][2][3][4].
