Overview

5 mCi quantity of L-[4,5-3H(N)]-Leucine available for your research. Leucine is an essential amino acid important for protein synthesis and many metabolic functions. It is metabolized primarily in the liver, adipose tissue and muscle tissue. Leucine is not produced by the human body and so much be obtained by diet.

Applications include:

  • Metabolism studies
  • Kinetic studies of plasma lipoproteins
