Application

L-Asparagine monohydrate has been used:
  • as a media supplement to culture Black Mexican Sweet (BMS) cells
  • to prepare Adams III media to supplement C+Y medium for culturing Streptococcus pneumoniae
  • in an asparagine-rich diet to study the E0771 syngeneic breast tumor growth and survival in mice

Biochem/physiol Actions

L-Asparagine (L-Asp) is a nonessential amino acid involved in the synthesis of critical cellular proteins of human cells. It is synthesized from oxaloacetic acid. L-Asp is used as a growth supplement for tumor cells in in vitro conditions.
