Application

L-Glutamic acid potassium salt monohydrate has been used as a component in KG buffer for cardiomyocyte isolation and culture.

Biochem/physiol Actions

L-Glutamic acid plays a major role in several metabolic pathways. It acts as excitatory neurotransmitter in the cerebral cortex. An plays a key role in learning, memory and brain aging processes. It is involved in neuronal differentiation, migration and survival in the developing brain. High levels of glutamic acid is observed in Alzheimer′s, Parkinson′s diseases and epilepsy.
