Supplied for laboratory research use only. Not for human or veterinary use, and not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
Overview
Each component is well characterised chemically. L-glutamine is C5H10N2O3 at 146.14 g/mol, L-arginine C6H14N4O2 at 174.20 g/mol, L-ornithine C5H12N2O2 at 132.16 g/mol and L-lysine C6H14N2O2 at 146.19 g/mol. All four are supplied as pharmaceutical-grade material, and the finished solution is preserved so the vial can be entered repeatedly across a study rather than discarded after a single draw.
Questions about Amino Blend (Glutamine · Arginine · Ornithine · Lysine)
Why are these four combined?
Their metabolism interlocks. Arginine is converted to ornithine by arginase, ornithine feeds polyamine synthesis, lysine shares transporters with arginine, and glutamine is the body's main nitrogen shuttle. Studying them together lets researchers look at that network rather than one node at a time.
Is a certificate of analysis available?
Yes. Each lot is documented with identity and content for the amino acid components and sterility of the finished solution, and a certificate matched to the lot number on your vial is available on request before or after purchase.
How should the vial be stored and handled?
Keep it upright at 2–8 °C away from light and do not freeze. Swab the stopper before each entry, use a fresh sterile needle every time, and note the first-entry date. Discard the vial if the solution becomes hazy, discoloured or shows particulates.
Does the solution contain a preservative?
Yes. Benzyl alcohol is included so the vial can be entered more than once during a study without the diluent supporting microbial growth. That also means the vehicle is not inert, so vehicle-only control arms are worth including in experimental designs.
What research uses does it have?
It is used in nitrogen balance and protein turnover work, gut barrier and immune cell fuel studies involving glutamine, urea cycle and polyamine flux experiments, and as a reference stimulus arm in growth hormone secretagogue physiology.
