L-Valine
Based on 5 publication(s) in Google Scholar
L-Valine ((S)-Valine) is a nonlinear semiorganic material. L-Valine causes lipid peroxidation and accumulation of malondialdehyde (MDA), exhibits inhibitory activity against cyanobacteria. L-Valine inhibits multidrug-resistant bacteria through activation of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and inhibition of arginase.
