D-Lysine

D-Lysine is a useful raw material employed as an analog of lutenizing-hormone-releasing hormone and as a agent carrier in the form of polylysine. D-Lysine decreases renal uptake of radioactivity during scintigraphy and PRRT with low toxicity. D-Lysine not interferes with the natural amino acid metabolic balance[1][2].
