Lipoic acid (GMP) ((R)-(+)-α-Lipoic acid (GMP)) is Lipoic acid (HY-18733) produced by using GMP guidelines. GMP small molecules works appropriately as an auxiliary reagent for cell therapy manufacture. Lipoic acid ((R)-(+)-α-Lipoic acid) is an antioxidant, which is an essential cofactor of mitochondrial enzyme complexes. (R)-(+)-α-Lipoic acid is more effective than racemic Lipoic acid.

Biological Activity
Lipoic acid (GMP) ((R)-(+)-α-Lipoic acid (GMP)) is the form biosynthesized in humans which is essential for aerobic metabolism. Lipoic acid (GMP) is the nutritionally and therapeutically preferred form due to its "vitamin-like" role in metabolism. Lipoic acid (GMP) and S-(-)-α-Lipoic acid) constitute the racemic mixture Lipoic acid. Only the Lipoic acid (GMP) exists in nature and is an essential cofactor of four mitochondrial enzyme complexes. Lipoic acid (GMP) has been suggested to be nutritionally and therapeutically preferred form as antioxidant[1].
