DL-Arginine-¹⁵N₄,d₇ hydrochloride  (Synonyms: (±)-Arginine-15N4,d7 hydrochloride)

DL-Arginine-¹⁵N₄,d₇ hydrochloride is deuterium and ¹⁵N labeled DL-Arginine hydrochloride (HY-W014375). DL-Arginine ((±)-Arginine) hydrochloride is the racemic compound of L-Arginine (HY-N0455) and D-Arginine (HY-W016781). Arginine is an essential amino acid that requires additional supplementation in traumatic or diseased conditions. Arginine is involved in T cell activation, proliferation, and differentiation, and affects the function of immune cells^[1].

2. This compound can be used as an internal standard for quantitative analysis by NMR, GC-MS, or LC-MS.

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs^[1].
