Description

• General description: Arginine Hydrochloride is a salt of arginine, which is a semi-essential amino acid. This dibasic amino acid acts as a precursor for creatinine and is a natural constituent of most of the dietary proteins.Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control, provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards.
• Application: Arginine Hydrochloride may be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in pharmaceutical formulations, dietary supplements and capsules by chromatography.[1][2]
• Biochem/physiol Actions: Substrate of nitric oxide synthase, which is converted to citrulline and nitric oxide (NO). Induces insulin release by a nitric oxide-dependent mechanism.
• Analysis Note: These secondary standards offer multi-traceability to the USP, EP and BP primary standards, where they are available.
• Other Notes: This Certified Reference Material (CRM) is produced and certified in accordance with ISO 17034 and ISO/IEC 17025. All information regarding the use of this CRM can be found on the certificate of analysis.
