Description
L-Arginine Product Overview
L-Arginine (C6H14N4O2) is a white crystalline powder that dissolves easily in water. The body uses it to make nitric oxide, creatine and urea, which is why it is popular in sports and cardiovascular nutrition. It is produced by fermentation.
In addition, producers of nutritional products use it in capsules, tablets and powders, often combined with L Carnitine, Creatine Monohydrate and Beta Alanine in sports formulas. Similarly, pharmaceutical companies use it in infusion solutions and as a counterion for APIs, cosmetic formulators use it as a pH adjuster and skin conditioner, and feed producers use it in poultry and aquaculture diets.
Notably, both the base and the hydrochloride (L-Arginine HCl, CAS 1119-34-2) are available. Related amino acids in our range include Glycine and Taurine.
