L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine

Glutamine is an essential amino acid commonly used in cell culture. However, it is notably unstable in liquid media, spontaneously breaking down to release cytotoxic amines. L-alanyl-L-glutamine dipeptide is a Glutamine substitute that provides a more stable form of glutamine for use in cell cultures. L-alanyl-L-glutamine prevents degradation and cytotoxicity while markedly increasing shelf life.
