L-2-Aminobutyric acid
Based on 1 Customer Validation
L-2-Aminobutyric acid (H-Abu-OH) is a non-proteinogenic amino acid that exists in human tissues and body fluids. L-2-Aminobutyric acid is formed by the transamination of oxobutyric acid. L-2-Aminobutyric acid can serve as a precursor for anticonvulsant and anti-tuberculosis agents and is a key intermediate in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

Solvent & Solubility
H2O : 50 mg/mL (484.87 mM; Need ultrasonic)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 2 years; -20°C, 1 year. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 2 years. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 year.
* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.
